Hi there. I am just about in time to get my entry in to this month's Rudolph Days Challenge run by Mo over at Scraps of Life by Scrappymo. I was thinking that I had got a couple more days forgetting it is a shorter month, though one day longer this year as it is a leap year. I have made this card using a Crafty Individuals Large Christmas Tree (CI-460) stamped using Versafine Olympia Green which to be truthful is so dark it looks black on the kraft card. I also stamped the sentiment using the same ink and then heat embossed both using WOW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder.
I decided to add some stars using a freebie stencil which I have had for ages, and added Brilliance White Ink through it using a piece of blending foam. I then accentuated some of them with a Signo Gel Pen and I also used this for the snow on the tree and some falling snow.
Thanks for visiting today and I hope you will come back again soon.
I am entering the following challenge:
February Rudolph Days Challenge - Anything Christmas goes.
Watercooler Wednesday Challenge - No. 260 All About Occasions. (Great to be chosen as one of the 'Rockers' for this challenge)
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes.
Winter Wonderland Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes.

This is gorgeous Pat. I love the use of Kraft card and this CI stamp works beautifully on it. I also love the addition of the stars. You should add this one to the CI FB page. They have a dedicated album for Christmas cards x

I somehow missed this gorgeous card when you posted it, Pat. The beautiful Christmas tree looks great on kraft. I love you starry stencilled background, especially the way you positioned and large one behind the tree. xx
Gosh, you have really captured the look of perspective on this great Christmas tree card.
I love the idea of stenciling the stars. They look fabulous here.
Sorry I am so late getting round to visiting. Thanks for taking part in the Rudolph Days Challenge.
