Christmas Pines

Usually I have my posts scheduled to go up early in the morning (Pacific Time).   Today I am running a little/lot behind schedule.  I have been playing with my new Stitched framelits.  Today I used it as a layer instead of adding the usual scalloped piece, I used  a stitched piece.

I used the Presents and Pine Cones DSP and I love this color combination.  Who would have thought that Cherry Cobbler, Emerald Envy, Mint Macaron and Delightful Dijon would look so good together.   This is a great  non traditional color combinations for Christmas.   I used the Pretty Pines Thinlits to cut out all the foliage.  

I made some frosted berries to add to the foliage.  I embossed Cherry Cobbler card stock with a custom mix of  1 part Clear embossing powder and 1 part Dazzling Diamonds glitter.  I use this mix a lot since SU! no longer sell Iridescent Ice embossing powder.
