A Peaceful Winter Scene

I made these fun trees to use as centerpieces for the tables at my moms church group.  We're having an event centered around peace and I thought these colors from the retired Aspen kit were perfect for a peaceful winter feeling (Twilight, Outdoor Denim, Creme Brulee and Colonial White).   I was inspired by CTMH CEO Jeanette Lynton's blog post here and her trees to make my version.  With the help of my Cricut, I cut 140 1.25 inch sized circles per tree and hot-glued them onto a cone shaped cardstock base for each tree.  My awesome friend Heather helped me assemble all of them, thanks Heather!!

Quick and Easy Christmas Cards

 

 

 

In less than an hour, I finished these four cards tonight!  I put them together as samples for a group I'm part of at church and we wanted them to be quick and easy to put together, using just adhesive.  So, these are what I came up with.  I sat down with my wonderful Wishes book, chose 4 card designs, cut all the papers, did all the stamping and put them together in less than an hour.  I really am happy with they turned out.  Sometimes, less is more!  I'll try to remember that as we enter into this hectic, busy season.
