CASology : Tree

Hi there!

We have a fun new challenge at CASology this week!


                                                 

For my inspiration card, I decided on a non traditional Christmas tree, decorated in traditional colors... does that make sense? ;)

Take a look :






See what I mean ;)


I have used this basic tree shape die by Cottage Cutz in so many ways and for all seasons... now I can add a Christmas tree to the list. For today's card I added tiny sparkly bows cut from glitter fun foam. all the fun without the mess! The die I used for cutting the bows was a freebie included in The Papercraft essentials magazine.

I grounded the tree in a glittery green lawn, hand cut also from glitter fun foam.
My own sentiment to finish everything off. You are welcome to download and use it... if you do... I would love to see how you used it!

3 options to choose from:











Can't believe I've reached sentiment # 700 with this post !!!

Never thought I would reach this milestone the day when I first started sharing my sentiments.
