Create an elegant festive card featuring nesting oval frames that form a sophisticated layered design. The card showcases a Christmas tree within a gold-accented oval frame, with the word 'HOPE' and decorative poinsettia flowers and leaves. Using die-cutting and layering techniques, you'll build dimension through carefully spaced oval mats for a polished, professional finish.
Die-cut all nine sizes from the stitch oval die set using your chosen cardstock. This will create a nested set of oval frames with decorative stitched edges.

Layer the oval die-cut frames on top of each other, starting with the largest silver glitter oval and working down to the smallest, positioning them centrally to create a nested frame effect.

Position the layered oval die-cut frames on your card base, offsetting them slightly to one side for visual interest. Adjust the placement until you are happy with the arrangement before adhering.
