better late.......

THEN NEVER......right???!?!



Not sure why my post....didn't post but here it is!!!

With the craziness of the holiday season......I am looking for ways to KEEP IT SIMPLE this year!!

soooooo.....I located this star template from Lily Oake,
printed it out and blew it up a bit!!

I then cut (2) stars from Tim Holtz Kraft Resist paper.

Using my paper trimmer with a scoring blade in it....
I scored the star.

I pulled out my Stormy Sky, Broken China and Picket Fence Distress Inks.

I covered the entire surface with Broken China.
Then a layer, around the outside edges with
Picket Fence followed by Stormy Sky.

With another piece of Kraft Resist Paper, I cut out the Tattered Pinecone.
I then adhered cardstock to chipboard and cut out the sprigs.

Spritzed a piece of seam binding with Sunflower Sparkle Perfect Pearls Mist.....
and there you have it!!!

Soooooooooo.....there you have it.......
