I used one of Jen del Muro's sketches again - some of them are great "go to" sketches and some of them you really have to use your noggin', but this one was good to use!
I used Papertrey Ink Ocean Tides cardstock - love love LOVE this shade of green/blue/turquoise, and I had just been to Michael's and with my 40% off coupon I bought a K & Company pack of paper.
This paper is gorgeous - very distressed looking - you will probably see a lot of it in the coming weeks.........
Using Little Paper Shop stamp set Chirp, I stamped the tree in versamark and embossed it with gold embossing powder - omgoodness, I can't believe how bad this picture is! We have absolutely NO sunlight and I can't take a decent shot without it, obviously.......ugh....
Then I stamped the little birds on top of the tree, followed the sketch, added a sprig of ribbon and voila..... done!!
Thanks for visiting!
