Holiday Clear Expression layout and Send It Clear Christmas Tree Card

Hello! Jennifer here to share some fun projects to get you into the Christmas mood!  I created a layout using a few acrylic pieces.  I used the small Holiday Expressions Clear Word Title, a small piece of the Scalloped Circle Frames, and "25" that I cut using my Tim Holtz Movers and Shapers Mini Reindeer and 25 die. 

 

After removing the protective film from all of the acrylic pieces, I colored each with Fired Brick Alcohol Ink.

And here's my finished layout!

I also created a Send It Clear Christmas Tree card with the same line. Again, I colored my acrylic using Pesto alcohol ink.

I covered the "tree" portion of the card with patterned paper, then added cardstock stickers and some bakers twine to the tree.
