Decorating the Tree!

Yes, I know it's only September but wouldn't it be fun to decorate our Christmas tree now?! That's what this trio of furbabies is doing  - here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110 lb;
Ms. Sparkle & Co Woodgrain Neutral
Paper Studio Holiday Cardstock
Stamps - Hero Arts  CL343 Holiday Sayings,
Stamps with Dies - My Monthly Hero kits: 
10/2018 & 11/2019 (both sold out)
Other - Copic Markers; Wink of Stella; 
Hero Arts red ink; Stickles

Still working the UFO boxes and found the pet trio already stamped. I die cut them and colored with Copics. The trio is from the October 2018 Hero Arts kit and I remembered having die cut the paper layering tree - sure enough found it in the same box. I stamped, colored and fussy cut the ornaments - they have no matching dies in the set, unfortunately. The star had a stamp and die; I added Stickles for some shimmer. Woodgrain paper made the floor and I added a little rug from the November 2019 MMH kit. Stamped the sentiment and done!

I'm adding this to the current Stay Crafty with Hero (Critters) and A Blog Named Hero (Cute) challenges. Also to CAS Christmas (Christmas Tree) and Christmas Kickstart (Festive Furbabies). Thanks to all for the fun challenges!! Thanks to you for the visit!!

  1. doesn't it feel good to use stuff from the UFO box - and this one is so cute - love that little mouse on top - my big cleanup netted about 4 cards from UFO stash - plus a lot of it went in the trash 'cause i knew it would never get finished or used.
