One more for the Cardmaking Day Challenges! I took the the WTU Challenge (trees) as the opportunity to make a first attempt on this year's Xmas cards. A Christmas Tree IS a tree, isn't it??!? LOL! And this is even a LARGE one!!!
I stamped the image with Palette Noir ink onto white cardstock and colored it with watercolors. Hard to see on the photo, but parts of the car and the red clothes are very sparkly IRL, I used a glitter pen on them. The sentiment and snowflakes were stamped with Snowcap White Adirondack pigment ink, but I added some white gelly pen to make it pop out a little bit more.
It's not turned out exactly what I wanted it - I think I have to work some more on the coloring or add more paper piecing, but it's okay for a first attempt - what do you think?

Too funny! Fabulous card -- this is why we stopped getting real trees!
