WT555 - You must use a brush - not just an image of one , though of course it's fine to do that too.
This was super fun to create. I stippled in the tree then added the snow to the tree and snow banks then added the sky and clouds. My family owns a Christmas Tree farm and this will more than likely be sent to one of the family members still living on the farm for Christmas as this reminds me of some great pictures of the trees on the farm at Christmas.
Thanks for looking!

What fabulous, perfect tree texture you achieved with your stippling, Lisa. The brush strokes in the sky look great too; a perfect card for someone Iiving on a tree farm. Thanks for making such a great sample.

Lisa, your painted card is amazing....it reminds me of an oil painting with the texture of the stippling of the tree. The added snow enhances the beauty of the scene. Tfs
