Oh, Christmas Tree

If it weren't for the deadlines at Operation Write Home, I would not be making Christmas cards.  Firstly, I am not that organized (remember, I am a last minute person) and secondly, I don't even want to think about Christmas til November.  My sister always gets her shopping AND wrapping done by Halloween.  I don't like her ! (just kidding, sis)
This cute image and sentiment is a GKD stamp set called Warm and Cozy.
I colored it with Prisma pencils.  I used the colors in the challenge at Chocolate, Coffee, and Cards and the colors in the designer paper were so close which is great because I wanted to use paper that went along with the tree.
You can't see it in the photo, but I added flocking to the stocking cap. 
The sketch I used is CPS 215, flipping it upside down.



Challenges:
Stampin Sisters in Christ - tree
Kraft Journal - ink it up
Timeless Tuesday - winter
Stamp and Create - winter
Cps - pick your sketch
