1. Adhere the silver cardstock over the center of the white cardstock piece.
2. Adhere the dark red cardstock piece over the center of the silver piece.
3. Print and cut the tree motif out of silver cardstock.
4. Cut 4 x 5cm lengths of silver wire.
5. On the first piece of wire, string 3 beads. Do this by inserting the wire through the first bead and then insert the wire through again to secure the bead. Add the second bead about 1 cm away and secure the same way. Add the third and secure again. Wrap the wire ends to the back side of the bottom of the tree in a diagonal way (see picture) and secure the ends with tape.
6. Repeat step 5 with the remaining 3 wires. On one wire, string 3 beads, on the next wire string 2 beads and on the last wire string only 1 bead.
7. Adhere the tree now to the card using foam tape to raise the tree and give it dimension.
