A Christmas Card - and Tim Style Pine Cones
I haven't got much to blog at the mo as I am lying on the sofa nursing a throat bug which is really grotty. It is very unlike me to catch anything. I don't feel well enough to do Tim's tags so my offering looks a bit pathetic, but I am enjoying seeing what everyone else is making. As you may know by now I don't hang from Tim's shirt-tails so it shows how inspirational he is that I jumped off the sofa yesterday to see if I could improvise from his brilliant pine cones video. The card is one that I think will be for Colin this year unless I can do better before then, so it's just a vehicle to show off the pine cones. (I used the Winter Distress Inks). I think bearing in mind I don't have the pine cone die or the Coredinations Kraft card I did ok.

You did far more than okay. Love the way you have the depth of the tree multiple times in lighter layers, and the bits of bling in certain snowflakes. Hope you feel loads better in the morning.
