NEW BRANCH...

 Hello everyone,

I finally took the plunge and bought another die from Memory box, although they deleted the Pine Needle border die I NEEDED so badly, I forgave them when this branch turned back up in stock..


YAY!!..it is so big I love it..I'm going to use this for snowy cards, Halloween cards, Spring cards and Summer cards, I'm going to use this puppy all year round...


Cut in white here and snowed up..


Okay, not a good picture, but snowed on it is..


This sheet of water coloured paper is from a Tattered Lace Never Ending card kit..
and when I get papers like this and only 2 sheets in a packet,and really love them, I photocopy or scan onto my PC and have them forever..


So I cut this sheet with a large round die and added a white snow bank along the bottom..


then my beautiful trees with white ink splatter....


and my branch, with a little bird sitting up there, and very delicate silver foil snowflake..


For the sentiment I printed Seasons Greeting then die cut using this Marianne Creatables 
hanging sign die, and tied it on with thin gold thread, which was not easy and took a few choice words to get it right..


Inked up my Deer


And nestled him between the snowy trees..and it is a rocker card..

So there we go, I'm on a roll with scheduling today, still Sunday, still raining and a breeze is coming in the window and dare I say....it is a bit chilly..after 31oC Saturday, yes it is chilly..16oC..
But not complaing, I love it..

Thank you so much for stopping by, back with a DT card tomorrow..see you then..

Luv CHRISSYxx
