Trees

 

 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  Tag It  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

It's been wonderful having Anita Rao with us this month as our guest designer!  I've loved her inspiration.

This week the challenge is: TREES

Me, I am a huge fan of trees! My childhood memories seem to always include trees...walking through the woods, climbing them, crating with their twigs, nuts and leaves, getting covered in sticky sap...I was always at home in the woods. I even started my career as a forester! So, when I saw this Tim Holtz stamp set, it spoke to me.

 No process photos this time, I got caught up in making the card. Below you can see most of the supplies I used (listed below)

Lots of layers with cardstock, watercolor paper and tags... 

Isn't this the perfect Christmas tag? 

The tree stamps so beautifully! The image is crisp in rustic wilderness ink. 

 I had a lot of good tree memories while creating this card, and I am as teamie Cheiron would say, "cracking on Christmas!"
