A Giant Amid the Bare Trees

The first Stampin' Up! stamp set I bought was Lovely As A Tree.  I made our Christmas cards that year -- and, every year thereafter.   I can still find times when I want to use Lovely As A Tree stamp set.  This year I stamped the row of barren trees with Crumb Cake ink.  Then I ran the Whisper White card stock through the Big Shot with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. 

I stamped the Peaceful Pines large scripted tree with Old Olive ink before I die cut it out with the Peaceful Pines framelit die using my Big Shot.  I adhered it using dimentionals. 

The ribbon is Real Red.  The "Merry Christmas" sentiment from the Come to Bethlehem (retired) stamp set is stamped using Real Red ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and attached using dimensionals.
Adhere all layers together.
