I had fun making a card for the Christmas Kickstart challenge - theme SNOW.
I used a design I have used before.
While I was at the Craft Fair a couple of weekends ago, I got a tree stamp by Montarga Stamps - a New Zealand based stamp company. I love the way it has very light trees in the background and darker in the front. I used some Catherine Pooler Eucalyptus ink to stamp my trees. I used a Yellow alcohol marker from Altenew to colour the sky - somewhat different. I added splatter of dilute white acrylic paint to make my snow and added to the ground and the trees. I die cut a circle out of the front panel and stamped it around the hole with holly leaves and added some snowflakes in Iceberg Altenew inks. The holly, snowflakes and the sentiment are from a freebie set. I stamped and fussy cut the holly and berries from Sunny Studio's called Christmas Trimmings.

So pretty, Dawn, a really lovely winter scene! We're having our first snow here today, and it's almost as pretty as your card!
Gorgeous traditional style card Dawn.
What a pretty scene, Dawn ... there's a lovely warm, vintage feel about it ... so nostalgic! Anita :)
The trees are fabulous and I love the card. I would never have used that color for the sky, but it WORKS!
