Merry Monday (on Tuesday) W is for white Simon Says

Happy Tuesday!  Happy Canada Day!
I made a card for the Merry Monday #115 challenge...had to think on this overnight.  White on white with the allowed silver sentiment.  The Simon Says Monday challenge (1st time for me to play) is W is for white!
This is what I came up with. 
I used this adorable old SU Christmas tree and stamped repeatedly with Versamark onto velum then embossed with white EP.  Same for the PTI "flourish" of snowflakes from Snowfall.  I added the Silver Peace die cut and added glue in between the back of the velum and the white card stock front.  I folded either end of the velum around the card stock front like I have seen Anita mention and the card front is popped up with some coaster board.  I like the outcome and have a few more of these embossed tree fronts to put together for a few more cards for the stash-yay!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!
