I can't remember where I saw this, but I thought it looked neat, so I gave it a shot.  I went through my ribbon stash to find different green ribbons, then folded them over and used some gold and Christmas brads to attach them to the card.  The "Ho Ho Ho" for the tree trunk was some stickers I found in my stash.
