Welcome back to the 12 Days of Stitch Advent Calendar by Spellbinders. Day 3 reveals a classic Christmas Tree you can use stitched or unstitched. I stayed with the unstitched look for this die cut and designed a clean, light-toned card with subtle sparkle and a grounded sentiment strip.

CARD DETAILS
Here’s a look at my card featuring Day 3 – I love the simplicity of this card. Once again, I did no stitching and let the die shine on its own. I paired the tree with a simple Have a Holly Jolly Christmas sentiment from my City Holiday collection and embellished the card with emerald gems.
So that’s a look at day 3! Keep it simple and unstitched, or dress it up with thread and ornaments to make it more festive! I’ll be back with Day 4 tomorrow.
