Today's page continues my theme of circle portraits. I love the Ornament Punch (#116794) and thought the ornament shape would make a cute frame for my subjects' faces. Then I used the Stampin' Up! Pennant Bigz XL Die (#110483) to make the tree branches. By the way, this die is on sale until 12/22 at great savings!

You can cut all 4 pennant halves from Designer Series Paper at one time. Use 8-1/2" x 4" pieces and line up at the point because you don't need the fold-over at the top. The smaller pennant half uses about 4" x 3-1/2", if you want to make a smaller tree.
I attached the ornament frames (faces to be added later) to the ends of the "tree branches" first, then adhered them one at a time to get the placement I wanted. I trimmed all the excess afterward. The page has room for journaling as well as the names of the "ornaments." There's room for more ornaments, too, if you need them for your own page.
