Today is the PTI December blog hop. The challenge was to use string on your creation. I used the die from the Polka Dot Parade Christmas set and cut the tree pieces from DP. I then used bakers twine as my string and attached the "Christmas" tag. The words are from the same set as the tree.
 
Thanks for looking.

Color challenge

 
I was asked to be a guest designer for The Outlawz Tuesday Color challenge for the month of December. This was the card I created for today. The colors were: Darkest green, Silver, and Snow White. I used the spellbinders layered trees to cut the trees from a glittery silver paper. The snow was made by tearing white paper and adding some blue ink to the top of the snow mounds. I used the snowflake cuttlebug embossing folder for the background.
