But instead of die cutting the trees and layering from there, I cut the trees out twice and layered them behind a frame I created with a stitched rectangle. 

I really like how the row of trees turned out. This bundle will be available after the end of the mini catalog sales period, however it will not be at the 10% off bundle price. 

I colored the bird using Stazon ink to stamp, then watercolor pencils and water pens to blend. I have always had trouble coloring birds, I think this will be my method moving forward.

After 2 years, this month is my last month creating monthly tutorials, I love the idea of creating them but find the process to be very stressful. Even thinking about them I feel the anxiety building. Moving forward I will likely still make a random tutorial but will associate them with a special offer.

Today I also want to share with you a couple of cards using goodies from the upcoming Jan-April mini catalog.

This card uses a Sale a Bration paper pick! Love it! Also a new set of alphabet dies. the "Hey there" is from another Sale a Bration Pick. All coming soon!

This card uses a new set in the mini called Best Day. 

Wishing you all a great week - I have lots of cards to make (another order from the new mini arrives tomorrow) some volunteering at school and a couple of hockey games to attend. Yippee!
