Christmas Tree Card for a Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge

This card uses the Hand Stamped Sentiments#252 here. All the trees in the inspiration photo gave me the idea to use the Santa's Sleigh stamp set and coordinating Santa's Sleigh Framelits. It's a bit of a fussy card with the stamping and cutting but the Framelits do help!
Wouldn't recommend making lots of these though.
I also used a bit of Whisper White cardstock that I ran thru the Cable Knit Dynamic Impressions Textured embossing folder.

Here's my recipe:
Stamps: Santa's Sleigh
Papers: WW, Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green
Inks: Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green
Accessories: Santa's Sleigh Framelits, Cable Knit Dynamic Impressions Textured Embossing Folder, Layering Ovals Framelits, Stampin dimensionals
