Christmas Craft Creations June Reminder - Christmas Trees


Hello everyone.   I’m popping in with the reminder post as guest designer for the Christmas Trees challenge at Christmas Craft Creations (CCC).

With Christmas Trees as the theme, I had to use the O Christmas Tree stamp set from Hello Bluebird to create this fun critter scene card.


Started by stamping all the images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It cardstock.  Coloured them with Copic markers and die cut out with the matching dies.


Next, turquoise dye ink was blended with a blender brush over hand cut hill masks onto a Bristol stitched rectangle panel to create the background.  The sentiment from Poppy Stamps (new unused gift from a friend) was stamped with Versafine Black ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Assembled the card onto a white card base and added a light flurry of snow with a white gel pen to finish.


That was a fun one.  I want to thank Charlotte and the CCC team for having me guest this month.  To see what they have created to inspire you to play along in the challenge, click HERE.  Thank you for joining me.  Have a wonderful day.

Such a terrifically cute, sweet and incredibly lovely holiday season greeting. We get a marvellous array of wildlife (including some of the critters pictured here) through our woodland backyard throughout the year and I can't help but imagine them gathering in the festive spirit to create a similar scene to this come December (you never know... :)).
