Sparkles Forum Christmas DT card ch.16 Christmas tree

Hi I'm back,

Arrived home at 7.40 am this morning, early start to drop my Mum and Sister at the train station.They'll be chugging their way home to Scotland now.  Had a nice couple of days and the weather was fantastic yesterday for our trip up the Yorkshire Moors.  Stunning views and a great spot to remember my Auntie Monica.  Then it was lunch outside at a cute cafe, rest in the afternoon and a meal out at an Indian near the Premier inn.  Here's my DT card for Sparkles forum christmas challenge 16 - christmas tree.
I used: Cuttlebug snowflakes embossing folder, with holographic embossing powder on which is hard to see on the pic, freebie tree embossing folder - it was my first go at using some core'dinations card and revealing the core, ribbon, charms and gems.
