Oh, Christmas Tree

Tis the season for making Christmas cards and I've got one to share today for Friends with Flair.  Stop by the Unity blog to check out all of the crafty submissions and for a chance to win a prize!

The card I'm sharing today is a scene card that came together in my head much better than it did on paper.  I used A LOT of Unity stamps for this from lots of different sets.  First I stamped the bicycle (from One Precious Life) and masked it and stamped the snowflakes (Nov 2011 KOM) with Versamark and embossed with white embossing powder.  I stamped the tree (Sept 2011 KOM) with 2 shades of green brush marker and cut out and wrapped some twine around and popped it up on the back of the bike.  The sentiment is from a Sept 08 KOM.  I used some funky glitter flakes to look like snow along the bikes path. 
I am entering this card in the Unity Let It Snow monthly challenge.  Wishing you all a happy and crafty weekend!  I know mine will be full of making LOTS more Christmas cards!
