NOEL

Another of my seasonal cards using the fabulous Tall Conifer from 100 Proof Press. The more I use this stamp, the more ideas spring to mind!
I do love broken china and faded jeans for my Christmas cards, they give a fabulous snowy feel when spritzed with water, which is exactly what I have done in my background for this card, masking off the central panel for my row of trees.
I stamped the row of Tall Conifers with black archival ink and added a little broken china to the bottom of the trees to ground them and give the appearance that they are sitting in snow.
I stamped the sentiment NOEL twice onto white card coloured with broken china ink and added to the top and bottom corners.  For further interest I included wooden stars to the opposite corners, again coloured with broken china ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
