I'm back with my second card using the April Sketch at Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers.
I grabbed some of the smaller scraps of my favourite Christmas themed paper and used both sides of it (even some of the ones I don't really like). I glued them on to a white panel and then trimmed it down to square up the edges. I didn't want to cover up the papers too much so I used a circle of vellum under my gold tree. Sadly, the tree doesn't stand out nearly as much as I'd like it to.
