nature's noel

One of the tags I made for the 12 Tags of Christmas with a Feminine Twist inspired me to make a card. CASEd myself, so to speak. Here's the tag.



For both I used Winnie and Walter Winter Woodland for the pine branches and MFT Hand Lettered Holiday for the tag sentiment and Essentials by Ellen Holly Jolly for the card sentiment which is heat embossed in white. I love mixing dye and pigment ink. The dye really soaks in to and saturates the paper. The pigment stays on top of the paper and the dye ink so you get some depth for free - see those light green branches! To give the card a modern kick, I added a corner of striped PP beneath the kraft panel.

I'm hooking up at:
Addicted to Stamps and More - CAS


Green is not a neutral, but it certainly is a natural so I'm hooking up at Inkspirational too

My Christmas To Do list is dwindling slowly. I hope yours is too! Happy Sunday.
