Every so often I stray away from stamping and try something different. I have stacks of patterned paper that I don’t use enough, but the Back to Basics Christmas papers from Dovecraft really caught my eye.

I love how simple this is.  I just cut strips of patterned paper and adhered them to a piece of scrap card, then cut out my tree.  I have used foam dots to add dimension and matt of the patterned paper to give definition.  The best bit?  I have enough of the strips to make several of these cards – quick and easy!
