Christmas Card without Christmas Stamps

Now that's a Fun Challenge hosted by the Crafty Laydee - to make a Christmas Card without Christmas Stamps! 



I went with a tree - so many stamps can be assembled into a tree, so this was really easy.


I inked up Papertrey's Tiny Triangles with my Kaleidocolor ink pad. The star I made from a feather in the TAWS - Bird Brain set and the sentiment is an ancient Paper Source stamp - I also inked it up with two colors. Some Stickles to add some glitz...

I am also submitting this card to the CHNC challenge, the CHNC stamp, stamp stamp challenge and the September Rudolph Day link

This is so fresh and a very clever use of the PTI triangles. I have that stamp set but have yet to use it.
