Tree Cover Plate in Three Different Ways
Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears on the blog today and I’m sharing three cards and three ways that I used the new Tree Cover Plate from Pretty Pink Posh. I’m going to be using some holographic silver and gold cardstock to get a beautiful shine on my cards.
Watch the video above I Watch the video in HD on YouTube
The Tree Cover Plate die is the size of an A2 size card (4 1/4” x 5 1/2”). There are nine Christmas trees that have beautiful stitched designs on them. You can take the Christmas trees out of the die cut or leave them in the die cut for a different look.
I die cut the Tree Cover Plate from white cardstock and then die cut it two more times using Holographic mirror paper in gold and silver. This gave me a total of three cover plate die cuts. I removed all of the Christmas trees from all three die cuts and set them aside.
For my first card, I glued the white Tree Cover Plate die cut shape onto an A2 card base and then added the silver and gold Christmas trees to all of the openings on the cover plate. I added dimensional foam to the back of the Christmas trees to give them dimension. I added a sentiment from the Sentiment Strips: Christmas stamp set and used the coordinating dies to cut out the sentiment.
For my second card, I added the gold Tree Cover Plate die cut shape onto an A2 card base and then added five of the white Christmas trees (from the white Tree Cover Plate) to the openings. For this card, I glued the white Christmas trees flat to the card and then added the sentiment with dimensional foam to pop it up.
For my third card, I used the silver Tree Cover Plate die cut shape and turned it into a shaker card! Be sure to watch my video to see how I made the shaker. I used the Christmas Cookie Shaker Beads for the shaker.
I love how you can get so many different looks from just one die! Thank you for stopping by today!
Lovely! All beautiful!

Fabulous idea to use the “throw away” pieces to make another beautiful card!! Still love the shaker cards best of course!! Getting to use the shaker bits is the bonus!
Love love love 😍
