Tutorial Thursday- 3D Christmas Tree

~ 3D Christmas Trees ~ 

Hello, it is Sue here with today's Tutorial Thursday, sharing the 'how to' for the dimensional Christmas trees used in this wreath.

What a perfect time of year to make some quick and simple trees for your cards, gift bags and other creative creations!

Firstly, get your supplies together:

 Christmas Tree die  

star from the Pretty Poinsettia Set

A good quality Glue

Scor-Pal

Stylus

Cardstock - Rouge and Moss

Step 2: 

 Cut 4 Christmas Trees and one red star- set the star aside, it comes into play right at the end

Step 3:

Score the through the centre of the tree carefully ensuring it is straight.

Step 4:

Score each of the trees in the same way.

Step 5:

Bend each tree at the score line, bending up between your fingers makes it really easy.

Step 6:

Leave the tree that will be on the bottom with a slight bend.

Step 7:

Run a thin line of strong adhesive down the score line of the bottom tree

Step 8:

Place the 2nd tree on top, add another line of adhesive down the score line.  Repeat this step until you have a stack of 4 trees.

Step 9:

Using your stylus, press firmly to ensure maximum adhesion. Allow to dry.

Step 10:

Squeeze the trees, ensuring they all pop up.

Step 11:

Attach the star, voila, you have a completed tree ready to attach to the project of your choice.
