This week we're CASEing a CAS Alumni: Emily aka stampingout. When I saw this cute Christmas card I thought of some fun book page trees I'd seen on Pinterest. I thought they would look great against the Kraft (Crumb Cake on my card) bg. I stamped snowflakes instead of stars using Very Vanilla craft ink. I sponged my trees lightly with Always Artichoke ink and used the same for my sentiment. I cut my curved snow from Vanilla also and used a Gelly Roll pen to add glitter to the snowdrift and trees. Instead of a top twine and lower dp strip, I used a slightly wider piece of Cherry Cobbler and tied my green twine over it. I popped the front tree on dimensionals.
