O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree...

...how lovely are thy branches.  Are you singing yet?  LOL!  I hope you find the branches of my Christmas tree at least cute:
 
 
It took me 2 days to complete this one, what with all the switching of papers on my cutting mat, gluing, glittering, and inking...lol!  All in all, I like my end result!
The designer papers come from the Merry Little Christmas MME 6x6 pad.  I tried to make it look as though the paper is wallpaper and a floor...maybe I shoulda hung a picture on the wall...nah.  A sweet sentiment from Signature Christmas stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa, and the card was done.  I'm going to enter this card into the following challenges:
 
The 12 Months of Christmas Link Up:  Anything goes with optional "Christmas tree" twist
Glory of Christmas:  No stamp or digi OR anything goes
Sparkles Christmas:  Oh! Christmas tree
CHNC #245:  T'was the Night before Christmas
Crafty Calendar:  Anything goes
Creative Card Crew:  Christmas
CHNC Patterned Paper:  Anything goes
 
Thanks for taking a look at my blog...have a wonderful day!
