I seem to be jumping right into winter with my card today!
I made my pinecones and pine cough using Botanicuts: Pine Bough Dies from The Greetery. I layered the pieces of the pine cone and then colored along the top edges of each piece of the pine cone with orange and brown colored pencils. I layered two pine boughs over the wood branch and inked over parts with Evergreen Bough Distress Ink. I added Distress Grit Paste: Snowfall to bits of the pinecones and bough.
I adhered the bough onto the woodgrain patterned paper and the cones over the bough with foam dots. I added a Remnant Rub: Christmas sentiment . I masked the bottom half of the card and splattered the top with a white POSCA pen.
I'm linking my card to:
Paper: Kraft, New Leaf , Cocoa Bean - PTI, DP Wood Textures Craft Papers - Craft Consortium.
Ink: Ranger Distress Evergreen Bough
Accessories: Botanicuts: Pine Bough - The Greetery, Grit Paste Snow Fall - Tim Holtz/Ranger, Remnant Rubs Christmas - Tim Holtz/Idea-ology, foam dots, brown and orange colored pencils, white POSCA Pen.
