When I was fooling around with some left over strips of CS I decided to create a couple of background pieces with them. I just randomly glued strips to a scrap piece and then using dies from my MFT set I cut out the trees. I really liked the result so I cut a piece of white CS to look like some snow, glued it at the bottom of the black card front and added the trees. Using 2 tiny star stamps I stamped the stars and then went over them with a sparkle pen. I white heat embossed the sentiment which is from Hero Arts. I would have used snowflakes but couldn’t find one small enough. Note to self – buy some additional small stamps for Christmas designs.
Your trees made with the mutli-colored strips look amazing and look great in the peaceful scene you created. Very pretty!!

Thanks, its amazing what happens when you use up the strips that get left over. I’ve just done several more backgrounds that I can use later.
