Welcome to another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!
Our theme this week is your favorite Anything Goes! The Design Team are playing with Concord & 9th products this week, and I made 2 CAS cards with their products, and a bonus project, too.
supplies: white cardstock, 4 shades of aqua and blue glitter cardstock, silver glitter cardstock, Concord & 9th Take a Bough dies (snowflakes only), Tim Holtz Holiday Words: Script die and woodgrain embossing folder, bow die from retired DieNamics Spring Wreath set, sequins to match
I cut the 3 snowflakes from the Take A Bough die set from 4 different shades of aqua to royal blue glitter cardstock, and then attached them to a doughnut I cut using 2 circle dies. I embossed the woodgrain panel, then attached my wreath, bow, and sentiment, and raised the panel above the card base. I finished by adding some sequins to match in the center of each snowflake.
I thought I'd share what this die set was really all about: adorable paper trees.
And one more card - I couldn't resist getting this new mistletoe die when it was released this year.
Now it's your turn - I can't wait to see what you create! Heidi has provided another $50.00 gift voucher

supplies: Take a Bough die set, green and gold glitter cardstock, wood skewers, old wood thread spools, red ribbons
You can see those same snowflakes at the very top of the trees here. I am so glad I got this set last year......every year now I make a few more of these trees for a forest that's growing on my fireplace mantel at Christmas. I used some almost lime cardstock for these - the one on the left has some sparkle in it.

supplies: red, white, and green cardstock, Concord & 9th Mistletoe die, sentiment from (retired) CAS-ual Fridays Merry Kiss-mas, Avery Elle Wonky Stitches framing die, pearls
I cut the mistletoe branch out 3 times and trimmed away everything but the leaves, then grouped them together, adding the bow and some pearl "berries". Could the sentiment be more perfect?

I do love C&9, although haven't been able to get any yet. Love every one of your projects, Lin! I haven't made a snowflake wreath in ages & you've inspired me to do it! The trees are just amazing!
