Instructions:
1. Die cut as many trees as you need and set aside. If you do not possess a die cutting machine, see here Winter and Christmas Templates to find a tree pattern to print out, or create one on your own.
2. Cut out a piece of white cardboard that is the same width as the card. On the top of this piece, cut curves to look like hills. Glue layers of fiber paper onto the white cardstock and then glue this piece onto the card.
3. Adhere a tree to the card using foam tape.
4. Take the dimensional paint and enhance details of the tree and also add dots to look like falling snow to the blue background.
5. Sprinke glitter into the wet paint and let dry.
