I love the theme this month at Christmas Kickstart... we are making cards for loved ones. These are those special cards that take a bit more time, might be especially beautiful and unlikely to fit a challenge. Such a great idea for a challenge! My card is very graphic. I took a wide variety of scrap black, gray and silver papers and cut each into an isosceles triangle, each one a bit different in size, to represent a forest of trees. The center "tree" was embossed with a background plate from Papertrey Ink on opal Stardream cardstock. The tree was embellished with small rhinestones and a bronze heart. Transparent snowflake sequins were also added. The forest is mounted on a white woodgrain card base and tied with silver May Arts cord. A simple, white embossed sentiment from Simon Says Stamp, Tiny Words Christmas was the final addition.
Enjoy.
