Piecing Winter Trees



I got to tag along on another playdate with Ellie last week.  While the girls were playing the moms were crafting.



I brought along my Winter Trees set from Neat & Tangled and did some piecing.  While piecing is definitely time consuming, since I was using multiple prints for the trees, I was able to do a two-fer.



The tree image front his set is normally meant to sit more on the side of the card, that's how the hills is sketched, but for these cards I wanted them to be in the center of the card, so I just extended the hill to the left of the trees with a journaling pen.



This includes a hodgepodge of Christmas papers, some MME, Teresa Collins, and Pink Paislee as well as some Twinery twine.

Ok, short and sweet, there is a ton to do around here!

Paper/Cardstock:  Pink Paislee - Merry & Bright 6x6 pad; Teresa Collins - Tinsel & Co 6x6 pad; MME - Sleigh Bells Ring 6x6 pad; Avery Elle - White Cardstock
