Happy Thursday! And I am here with a card for the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge. Let's check it out...
And here is the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge:
I am tickled with how this turned out. It is the only the second time I inked up my Festival of Trees stamp set. Oh, why did I wait so long?! This set is a photopolymer stamp set and it was a cinch to line up the "ornaments" in Cherry Cobbler and stamp them on the Baked Brown Sugar Tree. I added some dazzle by going over the Cherry Cobbler ornaments with my red Stickles. They just glisten in the light now.
The base of the card is Very Vanilla. Then I added a layer of Baked Brown Sugar just 1/4" smaller followed by a piece of Under the Tree Specialty DSP another 1/4" smaller and popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals. I then stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Bliss Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler on a piece of Very Vanilla ( 3 3/4 x 2 1/4). It was also popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals.
Then I added the tree which had been punched out using the coordinating tree punch. You have to love our punches, it makes crafting quick and easy.
Make sure you stop by Pals Paper Arts and see what the other design team members created. We hope you will be inspired to play along. Remember you don't need to have a blog to play. You can upload from Facebook, Splitcoast Stampers, Pinterest, etc.
My holiday decorations are up. I am one of those people who can't have enough twinkle lights. My husband has come to learn my mantra - we need more lights! It is the one time of year I let the little girl inside me, guide me. Oh it is so fun. What do you do that makes the holiday season special for you?
Cheers,
Michelle

Crisp, clean and delightful! Love how the stamped and punched out tree echoes the trees on the designer paper -- the combo works so well!

The sparkly jewels on the tree are my favorite part of this wonderful creation, Michelle!

This is SO pretty, Michelle! I love the DSP you chose and all the layers to really make the colors pop. The little sparkly "ornaments" are perfect, too.
