Sheet Music Scrap Christmas Cards

Here's a quick homemade Christmas card craft!

Supplies:
-card blank (or card stock cut to a size to fit your envelope)
-sheet music
-glue (I grabbed my Mod Podge)
-black Micro Pen (I used 08)
-distress in (I used "tattered rose" by Jim Holtz)

First, get a general idea of the size of tree you need for your card:















Next, using the edge of the table, rip a general shape of the tree:



Then rip the tree apart, into the number of pieces you'd like (5-8 is good):



Next, glue each piece on the card, leaving room for the bottom "trunk", and the top star (tip: start at thetop!):



Stick on any star sticker:



Using the black pen, draw on the tree base, and write out "Merry Christmas", then gently distress the edges with Distress Ink:



Tadah! Done!


You can do much more with this craft, such as drawing your own star, or distressing each individual torn music piece, etc.

Enjoy!
