I’ve finally sat
down to make my Christmas cards and this year I am using Tim Holtz’s Scribbly Christmas trees on them.
As I have a lot to
make I decided on two designs and then used scraps of paper in different
patterns with different combinations of stamps from the Scribbly Christmas set
to ensure variety. This card follows the
current sketch at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.
I bought a whole
bunch of Dress It Up holly buttons earlier this year in preparation for my Christmas
card making. As usual I got prepared
early and have left the actual making till the last minute, sigh… And while I probably went with too fussy a
card, given how many I had to make (46 of this one), I am really pleased with
how it turned out.
Being a Christmas
card I am entering it over at Jo’s Scrap Shack in the current Fun-day Friday challenge
and also at Just Add Ink (Christmas is my just add C).

Mixing all the patterns really adds great depth Emily and makes a great base for your scribbly tree. The little holly bunches are a lovely decorative touch too! Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week.
