I started with 2 #8 Manilla tags which I painted with Distress Paints in Mermaid Lagoon and Weathered Wood and spritzed with water for blending. I then stamped some mini trees from the  Trendy Christmas Trees set with Black archival ink. I then created my "Snowy Hill" by cutting out a Hilltop and using Faber Castell Micro Bead Gel thru the  ARTplorations Bubbles Mini Stencil. I embossed some snowflakes from the set with white embossing powder and stamped my sentiment with Black Archival Ink. 


I then stamped my Christmas trees onto Recollections Design Paper and using the Trendy Trees Coordinating Dies to cut them out. I then topped the main tree with a TH Star Embellie.  Some blue/white twine finished off my Christmas Scene. :o)


Keep on Hoppin' and if you get lost along the way, go back to STAMPlorations TAGplorations Hop Post
