Un-Christmas Trees - Merry Monday #159

Hey everyone, how are your Christmas card stashes coming along?  Time to add another one to the stockpile and play along with us at Merry Monday!  This week's theme is to make a Christmas card with any tree that's NOT an evergreen tree, time to get creative and think outside the Christmas tree box!  I decided to make my own out of some stitched circles and a freehand trunk.  What do you think?


I love these sweet white trees in the inspiration photo:


You can see all the details and gorgeous inspiration from the rest of the Design Team here.  Or stop by their blogs and give them some love:

Katie Melhus (you're here!)
Lori Turner


I can't wait to see everyone's entries in the gallery this week, I'm always so impressed with all of the creations.

Thanks for stopping by, keep it crafty!
