Snowy Tree

Happy Monday to ya!  I can still say that even though I'm coming in under the wire tonight!  ;-)

Here's one of my Christmas cards.  I got the inspiration for it from Loll--she makes the prettiest cards!

It was kind of like working on one of Tim Holtz's tags...I didn't have any of the supplies Loll used so I had to improvise.  Just like Tim's Tags!  LOL!

Here's my MacGyver-ed card:


I used a Memory Box die cut for the trees (brown Bazzill cardstock.)  Then I dusted on some snow (Picket Fence Distress Paint) and a bit of sparkle (Gelly Roll glitter pen) and I stamped then fussy cut the bird (Impression Obsession--I think.)  I'm pretty sure that's a KaiserCraft sentiment stamp along with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I made several of these, assembly line style.  Each time I adhered the bird (using PopDots) to a different branch and moved the sentiment up and down a bit.



The weather here has been dreary for days, so I haven't been able to take photos of my December Daily album yet.  But I *have* managed to keep current with it!  Maybe the sun will come out this week for a bit!

Thanks for visiting today!

This is so pretty, Cynthia! I love the "dusted" trees and the little bird! And the font on that sentiment is so pretty, flourished but not fussy! This is a great layout to play with and make each one a little different!
