Lots of Trees

Just a quick post today to share a Christmas card because I think it matches the theme at Allsorts this week. They are looking for Christmas flowers wreaths and trees.


The sky was blended with distress inks, the trees were stamped with Momento London fog, Catherine Pooler eucalyptus and daydream inks.

After cutting out the circle window I embossed the front panel with the Altenew dotted swirls embossing cover die.

The sentiment was heat embossed in silver. both the sentiment and tree stamp were a free gift with Simply Cards & Papercraft mag.


That's it. A little different for me I think.

I am way behind with my Christmas making but somehow I keep finding something else to do!


 Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.

How nice to see you at Allsorts Hilary and with a beautiful creation.

The variants of colour used to stamp the trees works really well and gives for great clarify within the little scene. Thanks for joining in.

I love making a forest, but haven't done it in a long time. This is really beautifully crafted, Hilary! Reminds me I need to use that Altenew die!
