I am popping in to share a post about this new (to me) die.

Christmas Tree (Penny Black)
I used the "Direct Ink to Paper" approach for the inking up the die.
I simply swiped a few green inks onto white card stock and let ink dry up a bit.
I then run the tree die with my color paper through the Cuttlgebug and that's it!
This works best with intricate dies like this.

I highlighted a few area with Green Wink of Stella. I had so much fun adding the sequins for the decoration/ornaments. For the added interest, the background was partially stamped with Script (Penny Black). I love it when the intricate dies can be used so easily and effortlessly.
Lastly, I want to bring a few items to your attention:
~NEW: Simon Says Stamp has Advent Plus to create your own personalized advent calendar! π
~ Tiny Ninja (from Mama Elephant) is up for sale now. You can buy stamps/die separately or combined. It was previously featured in Masterpiece Box this summer. You can see my post here.
~ The December 2016 Monthly Card Kit is out for a few days now. Grab it while they are still available.
~The Holiday Card Kit 2016 Christmas (Limited Edition ) is JUST out. Need I say more? π
