Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round ~ Trees and/or Barns

   Hello and welcome to this month's Christmas challenge at
 Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round. 
 

Our challenge this month is Trees and/or Barns

Here is our inspiration pic ...


I recently received a card kit from my SIL and thought it perfect for this challenge since there are several trees on it.


I used my own papers for the card design. It's a great way to use up some of those never ending scraps.
I cut each circle using a die from the X-Stitch Nesting Circles die set from Tutti Designs. Then I cut them right down the middle and that is how I got the two perfect halves for this card design.


The image is cut from a decoupage sheet and is made up of four layers.  I used foam squares to adhere the layers to each other.


Continuing with the "trees" theme to the back, I added another couple of trees that were included in the kit.


This is a 15cm square card and fits perfectly into a 5.75" square envelope.
Forgot to mention that the little banner that says "Merry Christmas", in Dutch, was also included in the kit.  Since this card will be going to someone dear to us in Holland, the sentiment is perfect!

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Now it's your turn to make a Christmas project, that falls within our challenge theme, and come play along with us.  You have till the end of the month to link your project to our blog at  Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round.

Crafty hugs,
