After seeing this weeks sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches #440, which is a revisit of sketch # 415, I knew I had recently made a card to fit that bill. It uses the MFT stitched scalloped basic edges die and the Spellbinders foliage dies. I used a scrap of herring bone designer paper to cut out my pine branches, and I think it gave them a unique look. I added a wee bit of inking through the pine cone die with some Unicorn White ink, to create accents.
There are some tiny gems and a twine bow to finish this one off.
We are expecting snow this weekend, so I may get a long stretch at my craft table. This week was pretty much spent going from work to dinner to bed. Hope you have a great weekend!

What a beautiful card!! I love the pine cones and branches! It's so neat to see dies used with non-normal papers!

This is such a wonderful take on the sketch and very original too! I love the dsp used for the pines - it does give it such a unique look, I agree! I hope you enjoy your extended crafting time :)
I forgot to say thanks for playing along with the Tuesday Morning Sketch challenge, sowwy :)
Very nice! I too like the use of the DP for the pines. I also like the touch of white on the pinecones. Thanks for playing along again this week at TMS!
Wow - this is absolutely stunning! I love the paper and the pinecone is so pretty. Thank you for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
