Hi Everyone, it's time for CAS Christmas mid month reminder and Trina wants us to make some cards with pine on them. Remember you have till the 24th of the month to play along.
I used the Unity pine cone and branch set along with the sentiment. I stamped the branch directly onto the card base and stamped the pine cone on mixed media paper. I fussy cut the pine cone, coloured in different shades of brown and coloured the edged it using a brown pen. I used my McGill flower shaping tools to give a more 3D effect.
I added a few small sparkly white sequins as water drops.

Christine, a beautiful card with your lovely pine leaves.
Your pine cone and sprigs are lovely, Christine. The pine cone looks real ... you've used the perfect shades of brown and the shaping gives it dimension. Great work! xx
Great colors on your wonderfully fussy cut pine cone Christine! So pretty popped up over your pine boughs and great mix of fonts on your sentiment! xx
How beautiful Christine and love the dimension of the pinecone which looks fantastic, and the white sequins and a wonderful sentiment finish this perfectly. x
This is so pretty. For years I have been trying to do a pine branch with pine cone. It never seems to wprk out well. Maybe, I'll try it again sometime.
What an absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Christine! CAS perfection, and awesome fussy cutting skills on that pinecone too! :0)
That wispy pine is so pretty! This is a marvelous CAS card, Christine!
Such a beautiful pine cone and branches, Christine! You did a fantastic job of coloring the pine cone, fussy-cutting it, and making it look 3D!! The sparkly sequins are festive finishing touches!

A beautiful pine bough with an amazing looking pinecone, Christine! Wow!
Great fussy cutting of the pine cone - it looks terrific against those pine boughs. And your sentiment fits the space perfectly!
A beautiful sentiment and chunky pine cone. Perfect fussy cutting. The brown edge and shaping tools really worked for you here!

Your details on the pine cone are fabulous, Christine! I love how you stamped the branches behind it to add even more dimension...Stunning card, my friend! xx
I love this pine twig and pine cone with all its extra dimensions. It is certainly a very clever technique to add some dimension to a two-dimensional image. Thanks for the inspiration!
