On a piece of 3 1/8 x 4 1/8-inch white cardstock panel, place various sized green buttons to form a tree.

Fill in the gaps of the tree with the small size of the 3D Foam Circles Mix in White until you get the desired shape. Simply remove the back liner to adhere and leave the top liners on.

Attach each button on the card panel by adding an Adhesive Dot Small on the back and replace in its position.

Die-cut a star shape from a silver mirror cardstock and adhere above the tree with a large 3D Foam Circles Mix in White.
-
Stamp a simple sentiment in black ink at the bottom of the tree.
