Tiny Trees - Stampin' Up! Wishes All Around

   I'm plugging right along with my Christmas cards and my goal is to have them written out and mailed the first week of December!  I need to count how many I already have and how many more I need to make.  Wouldn't it be terrible if I had to put off housework to make all the cards I need??!  

  I used 2 more challenges today to make another fun Christmas card. The Alphabet Challenge is on the letter 'Q' so the theme is for something quadrupled; 4 of the same shape or image. I pulled my colors from the Just Us Girls challenge where they have a fantastic mood board to inspire us.  The little bottle brush Christmas trees in one of the photos inspired me as well.


  So for my quadruples I've used 4 trees as well as 4 colored squares.  These are some great colors and as I was using them I realized that they were the same ones in last year's Sweetest Christmas DSP (the ones with the candy canes) and I loved the combo then and I love it this year too!

  This card is really simple with a Snowflake Sky embossed background with a Garden Green baker's twine bow across the card front.

  The little tree from Wishes All Around is stamped in my 4 colors and then mixed and matched with the same 4 colors in die cut squares.  They are popped on dimensionals and have mini rhinestones at the top.

  A larger die cut square backed with a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock help the small trees not get lost on the card front.

  All of the items used to make this card can be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
