Merry Christmas 51

Mona Pendleton | Thursday, November 5, 2015 @ 2:12 AM | Make it Monday , MIM , PTI

Hi there! I'm so excited to be joining along with this week's PTI Make It Monday weekly challenge! This week, DT member Melissa is challenging us to create a fabric strip Christmas tree. I combined ripped strips of muslin fabric, lace and ribbons from my stash to create my tree:

The snowflake background was heat embossed snowflake background was made using pretty snowflakes from Winter Swirls and the sentiment is from Friendship Jar Holiday Fillers:

For color inspiration, I'm joining along with the current Colour me!... card challenge where we are challenged to create something using a Monochromatic colour scheme:

Many thanks for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great day / evening!

Be Sweet ;)
