Muse: ChristmasVisions 49

Just popping in with my card for this week's challenge, where Muse Cornelia gave us some fun inspiration using trees made out of a paint chip.


I had a digital image with fun trees printed out and ready to be coloured, but I ran out of time. And then this morning, I remembered the fun trees and critters by Pretty Pink Posh that I had previously coloured using Promarkers and fussy cut, tucked away with the stamp set and ready to be used on a card. All I needed to do was heat emboss the woodgrain stamp by Winnie & Walter in white ep (SSS) onto vellum and fussy cut it for my background. To add a little more interest I used a NBUS SSS die to die cut a snowy landscape. I popped this panel up using foam tape and tucked my images behind it. To finish off, I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of CS using archival jet black ink and popped this up using foam tape. Another Christmas card done. Yay!

Here is Cornelia's card:


Isn't it fun?

    This is so darling, Marianne. The woodgrain vellum was a great idea to back the trees. Thanks for sharing your card at ATSM this week.
