Today's Inspiration Challenge was a wonderful website of decorative tiles. This tree tile instantly made me think of this folk art tree stamp from the new Sewing Box Christmas set by Waltzingmouse Stamps
I stamped the 'ornaments' on colored card stock, punched them with a circle punch - then layered them on the tree with foam dimensionals after sponging the edges.
I paperpieced the base. The Faux stitched border is from another Waltzingmouse Stamp set called Off Beat Backgrounds. I distressed the edges of top panel.
I used a little silver ice stickles on the star for a little shimmer.
