Christmas Tree Challenge at CMLI

We are back and raring to go again at CMLI and this week's challenge has been set by the lovely Karen. Karen's challenge is to use a Christmas Tree (or two) on your card.

Here is what I came up with



I embossed the trees with my Tim Holtz embossing file and then inked them with distress inks. I then clear embossed the snowflakes so that when I ink over the backing it acts as a resist and the snowflakes stand out against the background. A bit of paper tearing, a splash of distress stickles and my card is ready for its close up :o)
