I used Gina K's O Christmas Tree stamp set with non-traditional colors to make this bright and fun card. After stamping both layers of the trees I used Gina's ML#2 dies to cut out the stitched rectangle and the skinny layer beneath and then layered both onto a white card base.
Here's a close up so you can see I used darker turquoise and pink inks for the branches and embossed the middle tree with silver for the branches. After stamping the sentiment, I finished by adding a Disco Ball sequin to the top of each tree. I love it when an idea that's so quick and simple (in my head) comes out so easily!!

You're so clever, Marcia. This is adorable!
Marcia these little trees are so cute and 'mod!' and disco balls? Now that's a Christmas party I want to attend!

What pretty little trees they are, Marcia! I like your mix of colors and the jazzy toppers! Cute card!
CAS and beautiful! I love that you used silver in the middle tree for even more zazz!
Oh, yes, I do love these trees! How pretty this is, and what a great color combo! Good progress on your Christmas cards, Marcia!
LOVE your pastel trees with their "disco ball" toppers and the clever way you added the sentiment!
This is such a great modern Christmas card, Marcia, and you added just the right touch with the silver embossing and 'disco balls'.
Those trees are so cute and a fabulous take on the sketch.
