Christmas Tree

What a wet couple of days!   A perfect day today for staying in and crafting.  As it will be Christmas Day in three months time, (where have the last nine months gone!?), I decided to batch make a few more Christmas cards and made 10 of this CAS design. 

The image and sentiment were from a pre-loved set of Stampin' Up stamps, 'Snow is Glistening', which I bought recently.  They were stamped using a Stampin' Up 'Night of Navy' ink pad on a cream rectangle, layered on a navy blue mat and attached to a cream 6" x 4" card blank.

 I am joining in the following challenges:
September Rudolph Days Challenge
Allsorts Challenge Week 538 ~ Trees and Leaves
Cardz 4 Guyz Challenge #229 ~Trees or Leaves or Both
Craft Rocket September Challenge #63 ~ Monochrome
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge #456 
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge ~ Anything Goes


Last Sunday I went to a Stampin' Up Crafternoon and I made these four cards and four tags.
We all came away with the Stampin' Up '#Elfie' set of stamps, so I'll be making a few more Elf Christmas cards and tags over the next few weeks.

    This is a very pretty stylised flowery tree and a great sentiment too Liz, and a fantastic set elf cards and tags too. I look forward to seeing what else you make with these cute stamps. x

    Another lovely card Liz. I envy anyone who has mastered the CAS technique. I can never stop myself adding that little bit extra and then knowing I didn't need to.
    The elves are very cute too. Lots of colour options to use there. Kate x
