Good morning sweet friends! It’s beginning to look a lot like the holidays! In fact, day light savings time begins on November 7th and the early end of the day is what always clues me in that we are in a new season. I’m back to reveal a new Die of the Month and as you might imagine, I wanted it to harken the coming holidays. Welcome I hope you love the Amazing Paper Grace November 2021 Die of the Month – Pop Up 3D Vignette Christmas Tree. There’s enough detail in all of the dies to tinker to your hearts desire.

Inspiration for the Pop Up 3D Christmas Tree
For this month, I wanted an elegant, layered, dimensional Christmas Tree that was as at home on a card as it was on a 3D Showcase card that you mail flattened yet leave standing for display. Mission accomplished. I have to say that all of the details, the packages, the bows, the ornaments and such are really delightful.
What’s Inside the Pop Up 3D Vignette Christmas Tree
This month’s set comes with 21 dies that allow you to be as detailed as you care to be! The nested trees can be cut with or without the dotted detail and they strategically stack so that you have successive layers rather than a flat tree. The part that makes me smile is the detail with the packages – they make the base so adorable and at the same time give you extra elements to embellish a flat card. The size of trees and embellishments make it possible to make both A7 and A2 cards with the set.
Check out the video to see how easy it is to assemble this standing showcase card:

I love how easy it is take all of the elements and arrange them for a card. The nested trees are simply adorable!
I also found that the trees were a perfect focal point for a slimline card. Here I’ve created a simple vertical slimline that gives all the glory to the trees!
And here is the entire group! By now you have no doubt started on your Christmas cards but don’t forget the special handful of cards that you send to those at the top of your list. In my world, I make a hand full of showstoppers. It has now become a tradition to those who receive them {heart}.

I’ve been diligently working in my craft room this week getting it set up! I’m usually pretty shy about these things but you never know – I just might show you some pictures of my progress. To be honest, it’s therapy sorting things out and getting things back to normal. For the past couple of years I have crafted on the floor, in the middle of the yard, on the kitchen counter and anywhere else I could find a space in my journey. If I can do it, so can you! Not having a “place” shouldn’t be the reason to not craft — I’ll share more thoughts on that soon!
[…] set also includes detail dies that look like wrapped holiday packages. You can see them in use on Becca’s Blog. The size of trees and embellishments make it possible to make both A7 and A2 cards with the set. […]
This release makes my heart smile…Look forward to getting the set and crafting.
