Pinterest Inspired Christmas Card

My card for today was inspired from a card found on Pinterest created by stamping up north by Laurie.
The original appeared to have been cut using dies and the sentiment I believe was a stamp.
Here is a Photo of the original card,


Using My cricut Exp;ore I tried to recreate it and here is my version.


To create the sentiment I used the writing feature on the Explore and added a swirl to the begining and end of the word Christmas I also wanted the three trees to stand out a bit more  so I embossed them . There is very little waste with this card . and I can get 4 cards from one 8.5 x 11 piece of card stock. Love that idea.

Thanks for stopping by would love get your thoughts on my recreation.
Big Blog Hugs, Janet
