Jeweled Bubble Tree

Hello friends.  Welcome to my blog!


Last Christmas I used this stamp to make framed pictures with
my craft group.  Then I made several more for gifts.

This particular piece had some wild gemstones that insisted
on falling outside the embossing and making a gluey mess!

So I cut around the tree and put it on another, smaller piece of black to
put on a Christmas card.

It was hand delivered!

Here's a picture of one of the framed pieces.


I see that Christmas Kickstart  is still open for joining in.


I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Love it! Reminds me of my favorite "vintage" Avon pin...a bejeweled Christmas tree in bright colors! I always get lots of compliments on it and I think your tree is compliment-worthy as well! Merry Christmas!

Totally delightful! Reminded me immediately of those horrendous trees that my aunt covered with lots of costume jewelry. This card looks like so much to make...next year!

Cool tree, Bonnie - love all the gems! And yes, I have one of those trees covered with costume jewelry - actually quite beautiful (I won it in a raffle about 30 years ago)! Happy holidays!!

I love your bejeweled tree Bonnie. Looks amazing framed and also as a gorgoues card. The gold really shines with the black background. And I love the different colours of the gem stones. xx

This Christmas tree is so festive and delightful, Bonnie! The gold heat-embossing against black enhances the bright colors of the gems. The framed one makes a wonderful holiday decoration of your home.
