Step 6: (card photo 6) Cut your green sponge in reference to your Christmas tree pattern.

Step 7: (card photo 7) Using the green sponge Christmas tree, cut the yellow sponge but make sure that this is 1 centimeter bigger than the green one. This will highlight the Christmas tree, giving it a 3D effect.

Step 8: (card photo 8) Concrete glue the yellow sponge to the green Christmas tree sponge. Afterward, fix this on the front of the card using hot glue.

Step 9: (card photo 9) Hot glue the star on top of the Christmas tree.
