It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at
We're using the Ghosting Technique this month.
It seems that the CAS Mix Up Design team is thinking about Christmas.
I hope you'll go check out their inspiration pieces.
I used a piece of a Ghosted Brusho background to die cut my tree. I tore some snowbanks, and
stenciled some snow to add to the scene.
There are some great videos on this technique.

Sweet!! Love your ghosted tree and your sweet snow scene. I do love Christmas cards. :) This is awesome! xx
