Merry Making - Day 4

Same class, just a different theme today at the Online Card Class, "Merry Making."

Today's theme: Die Cutting

I loved Jennifer McGuire's elegant card, and I could envision tucking a family photo in there, so I decided to give it a go. I tried both cutting plates that I have in my stash and quickly discovered that both were arguably too delicate for this technique. I made the birch trees work, but the holly was a no-go, so I just made a second card with the holly intact.
