It is the end of the month and the teapotters are sending cards to one another. Dr. Sonja has chosen a zentangle challenge. While I was trying to think of a suitable image, my eyes landed on this tree stamp set and voila, I did not even have to attempt it, lol. I diecut the eyelet die out of a 4+1/4" piece of shimmery white and decided I liked the look of the negative piece that it left, so on it went. I first stamped the star and then stamped the tree in black-is zentangle only done in black?, then just held some c.s. over the tree to stamp my stalk. Used my stamp-a-ma-jig to do the sentiment. Punched some red snowflakes cause hey if your tree is black, anything goes, lol. The rock candy glitter sticks very well, after using glue of course, so I don't think there will be much shedding, but will put this in a clear sleeve just in case. Merry Christmas!

Shirl, your Christmas card is wonderful....has such charm due to your zentangled tree and lovely framing. I admire your skill with zentangle....something I truly struggle with.
