3D Tree insert: He's making a list!



Maria did a fantastic job on her .cut file that I took the challenge and designed one for myself, last weekend after the snowman was such a hit!

Designed last weekend again like the 3D snowman, inspired by Karen Burniston and her sizzix die of the pop up tree. Used cricut design studio and GBS cart, this is my fourth attempt at cutting the tree as I had to make sure that the tree looked sturdy and was held together tightly without the possibility of falling apart as not held together by glue, it also had to fold flat within the card when closed. Well all accomplished as you can see. The design on the front of the card was made doing a spot of matting and layering and applying stickers which I bought a couple of years ago! I added flat backed crystals to the tree.

Love your cut file!!! You did an awesome job! Would love a copy of your cut file. My email address is: mr_conboy04@hotmail.com. Thanks so much for your willingness to share your time and talent! I'm trying to mimic a card I saw a while ago (and can't find back again!!!) and I must say, ds isn't as easy as you'd think! It's hard to remember all the little things to get it to work. My problem is I don't get enough time to play around with it much - but hopefully this winter!

Thanks again! Rosy

What a great deal of talent you have. I would love the cut files for both the tree and the snowman if you are willing to share. Just a question - how long does it take you to create a file like these ones. I spend hours/days trying to get something right. My e-mail address is c_adair@yahoo.com
