Well, I did not use the whole tree but branches from the holly, pine and etc...
This is also for
TLC510 ~ Scrappy Backgrounds ~ (12/01/14) by joan Ervin
I chose these two;
4. Use only patterned paper, only cardstock, or mix them up!!
6. Make sure at least half of the background is covered with at least 3 or more different colored or designer papers.
I made the pinecones with a i.o. chick shape die and drew the layers with a gold uniball pen and a dark brown copic marker. The different pieces of greenery are from various dies and punches that have been hanging around. The swirly background and diagonal sentiment strip were all previously made for no reason.
I needed this challenge to make this card happen. Thank you Joan for the challenge.
Thanks for viewing!

Wow Angela, your die cut background and angled sentiment layer are perfect for your gorgeous pine spray. I can almost smell the pine bough scent. Love how the colors pop against your BG too. TFS my friend.
