A fairly quick card this fortnight for The Holly and the Ivy Christmas Challenge #159.
I had 3 small snippets of designer paper that were just large enough for these little trees (Poppy Stamps Nordic Whimsy Trees). The snowy sky panels was left over from a previous project and I found a pad of watercolour paper on a shopping expedition last week that had a lovely texture (and was a bargain to boot) and I used it for the snow bank (Lawn Fawn Cloud Borders).
I'd like to enter the Snippets Playground Challenge #476 - here are my snippets!
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you go away a little inspired! Your visits and comments are always a joy and always appreciated! And if you leave a comment, I’ll know you were here and how to find you!

Your card is amazing. The great background fits perfectly to the stylized christmas trees.
ReplyDeleteCute card, like the trees. Hugs Anita
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty winter scene with those patterned paper and detailed trees!! That watercolor paper does look like snow and the "starry" sky gives a beautiful night feeling! Great card Kate!! Thanks for playing with us at Christmas Craft Creations!!
ReplyDeleteLove the look of this Christmas card. Nice tree dies and great background.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground (and for sharing a pic of your snippets). See you up in the treehouse for a glass or two of Guinness (still got some left in my satchel!). xxx
Wonderful card Kath - such a lovely scene with the snowy sky, snow bank (that paper HAD to be bought for sure, it's lovely) and the dear little trees are delightful.
