Natasha's sketch reminded me of my WoodwareUSA set called Patch Work Christmas. This tree is an image from that set. I paper pieced it, cut it out and attached it with foam squares. Sentiment and holly leaves are from Christmas Labels.
Supplies: Stamps - WoodwareUSA; Paper - Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Co.; Ink - Memento; Misc - Nestabilities, Foam Squares

169!
Good evening, this week has flown by, I can't believe it's already Thursday. I had the sketch already to go, all I needed was the card.

This one came together rather quickly. I wanted to use the "new" in colors, since I finally have them and I knew that I wanted to use a larger image, like an ornament or a tree. Sometimes all you need is the tiniest spring board to get the creative juices flowing.

Supplies:
Stamps: Vintage Ornament, Twinkle Background, Stylish Sentiments: Holiday
Ink: Fresh Snow, Pool Party, Island Indigo
Paper: White, Pool Party, Island Indigo
Accessories, etc.: Circle nestabilities
As always, feel free to leave a link to your project!

Here is my take on this wonderful, fresh sketch. My card is 4-1/2" square so I hand cut my half circle at the bottom. Thank you so much for stopping by our challenge today. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
