~ Traditional Christmas Colors ~

This is the theme at One Stop Craft Challenge this week. Although I used Distress inks, they are Red & Green, the traditional christmas colors :-) Small trees were punched out from textured (embossed) card stock. Twines and background DP were too white so I distressed them using TH distress ink, directly to them. I used Viva Decor Pearl pens for Cream & Gold pearls on branches, and used "distressed" red glitter for red dots on branches. I used the nestabilities for sentiment, which I CUT & mailed it here. I don't have a nestabilities with me, and had to color the edges, as the way it is shown there, different from coloring using the nestability dies, stil attached to the die cut outs. I found this image from my stash from years ago, and wanted to color it as soon as I found it, and this will go to my house mouse online buddy in NM :-)
Thank you very much for stopping by my blog today, in your busy Holiday Season. I appreciate it! :-)

Eve, I love the idea of adding pearls to the branches. I have this stamp and I am going to do this too.

Eve I love the traditional color theme paired with a whimsical mouse. I also like the twine you used to accent your buttons. You think of all the details.
