I've made the panels withsilver mirror carton, covered in a kind of fabric with black and silver glitter threads.
The trees are cut out of transparent paper
with music notes, using a Marianne CreaTables die. I attached them to
black paper, so that the pattern would be more visible. I added red pearls and rhinestones to the trees. For the label I used red paper, A Christmas sentiment rub-on and two star brads.I'm quite pleased with the result, but not so much with the pictures, as I struggled to avoid having my reflection in the mirror cards:)
