O Christmas Tree

3-D Items

25 Sep

So Saturday is the big day…September to Remember.  I go and pick up Linda Hansen at the airport tomorrow and I am so excited to see her.

One of the things that we are going to Demonstrate at our event is the cool new pop-up die "O Christmas Tree", so it is my technique, and I have been playing with it a little bit.

This is my first tree, it is not too fancy, basically I am just teaching everyone how to put it together, we are all Demonstrators, decorating comes easy, so I think people can handle that part on their own.  I did stick a few ornaments and a star on it from the Tree Decorations Sizzlits Die.

I cut out a piece of Christmas Cocoa Specialty DSP, it has flocking on it, and I used the Scallop circle bigz, this way it looks like a tree skirt.  The trees are meant to fold all up so it pops out of a card, I don't know if I will ever actually mount them in a card, I like the decoration part of it.  Once I sticky stripped it to the "skirt" now it stays put and it can not be folded.  If I send them in a card, I will send them just put together and flattened and loose, so the person can use it as a decoration. How cute would these be on a table…with some fake snow sprinkled around?

As I am typing this Grey's Anatomy is on and I am trying to see the monitor with big crocodile tears streaming down my face.  I hope you didn't miss it.

Well that's it for me, I gotta pack my totes for Saturday!

Have a wonderful Friday and thanks for stopping in!

    The tree is cute – I wanna see one when you have it all decked out with ornament and tinsel and the fake snow! Grey's was great – sad – but great. It certainly did not disappoint. Question – in your dictionary section…you have that you use your Sansodor for water colour crayons…do you use them with that too – I thought it was only for the pencils???
    Fill me in!
    Luv ya

    Hi Jax, I went in and re-worded it…my Canadian speak was evident…as I still say pencil crayons and people get confused.
    You can use the sansodor with both the pencils and the wonder crayons. I love using it with the wonder crayons cause then we have all the SU! colors, BUT it is hard to use them if you have a really small area, and if your crayon is dull (not a sharp point). The pencils are easier to sharpen for smaller areas. But for larger areas give the crayon a try.
    Mwah and love ya,
    Di

    Have fun at your September to Remember. Say Hi to Linda for me. Doubt she remembers me, but say Hi anyway!

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
