Season Of Joy Tree card

I had the Season Of Joy stamp set on my wish list for ages, and finally got it just after Christmas this year. I have been excited to use it, as I love the tree image. It was perfect for this week's card challenge over at Merry Monday.

This week we had to use the following graph for a TIC TAC TOE Challenge.

 
I decided to do the bottom row of Designer Paper, Red and Green and Ribbon. Here in New Zealand we do not get snow at Christmas, and I was running out of blue paper after the birth of three nephews!
 
 

 
Green is the colour of Christmas trees, and I loved the deep burgundy and red colour of this paper. Red and green is such a classic combination, and still one I use the most for my Christmas cards and layouts.
 
This card was so quick and easy to put together, but I really like the finished look and I could see myself making a lot of this design for Christmas. The sentiment is actually a burgundy colour, but looks brown in this photo.
 
Supplies used:

Creative Memories: Nordic Christmas PP, white cardstock, 12" Rotary Trimmer, Precision Point Adhesive, Tape Runner.

Stampin' Up: Garden Green 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon, Mini Glue Dots, Garden Green Ink, Bravo Burgundy marker, Chocolate Chip Marker, Season Of Joy stamp set, Loads Of love stamp set.
