This months challenge at CAS Christmas has the theme of 'Pine'.
Dipping into the Christmas boxes I came across a Uniko stamp set which fitted the theme.
The pine branches stamped with Memento Cottage Ivy ink then a bit of shadow stamping added to puff it out a bit.
I don't have a lot of brown inks (which shall no doubt be rectified very soon 😉) but I had Memento Rich Cocoa which actually looked OK for the pine cones!
Again some shadow stamping before I fussy cut the pine cones.
A liberal spattering with a white Posca pen and a sentiment from Penny Black.
Thanks for looking and I hope the sun is shining where you are! x

What a lovely CAS Christmas card and it fits the theme to a 'T' (having typed this my brain is now asking me where this saying originated) 🤣. Will have to ask Google.
