Another late entry. For directions for making this tree and the double-resist background, see Jennifer McGuire's Holiday Thinking Inking Classes, Week 6, on the Education Board.
I cut the base of the tree from a piece of green cardstock. the trunk was cut from a piece of thin wood I saved from an old Christmas card (not homemade!)
I put the base of the tree through a Xyron machine to add adhesive. I tore six 1/2“ strips from the long side of the Sticky-Back Canvas to make the tree. I was surprised to see how much I needed.
TIP: I added Sticky-Back Canvas to make the snow. After attaching it, I thought it would be a good idea to spritz it with the Perfect Pearls solution. That made the ink below it bleed into the canvas. So I cut some more canvas, sprayed it before attaching it, dried it, and attached it over the first one. That seems to work.
