I can't help but think of Charlie Brown ever time I look at this bare little tree. Which is exactly what makes the charm of this set! This set has been on my wish list from the moment it came out in the catalogue and I was lucky enough to score it for free during last Sale-a-Bration. (BTW, if you'd like to score some wonderful sets for free yourself, it is not too early to pick a date to host your own workshop after the Holidays! SAB will be starting on January 24th, 2012, so call or e-mail me to pick a date!)
The ornaments were stamped separately on Whisper White cardstock and handcut, then popped up with Dimensionals. I added Dazzling Details on some of the ornaments. Be warned if you use it directly on the ink that it can change the color. That's what happened on the striped ornament, but I didn't mind it. I did go back and stamp another ornament again because I didn't like how the ink had bled.
The snowflake and sentiment are from the Old St. Nick rub-ons pack, which is available in the Clearance Rack.
