The base was cut from a 7 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece of Night of Navy cardstock, which I scored at 2 1/2" and 5" to make the finished 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" card size. Then, from the front panel, I cut a rectangle measuring 2 1/4" x 3 1/4" from the center. I cut two rectangles 2 3/8" x 3 3/8" out of the pink patterned paper, and cut 2 1/8" x 3 1/8" rectangles from the center of each one. (Is this confusing yet?)
I stamped the tree onto an acetate panel with Stazon, then colored in with reinkers mixed with Diamond Glaze (Crystal Effects is the equivalent SU! brand). After that had dried, I sandwiched it between one of the pink rectangle frames and the front of my N.o.N. card, then backed it with another pink frame, to hide the adhesive.
Here are a couple more pictures, so you get an idea of the tri-fold design. Partially open:


Sorry for the confusing post! It really was pretty easy to do in real life...except for waiting for the stained glass technique to dry! *wink* Catch ya later!
