A purple Christmas Tree

 Happy Sunday! Today I have a beauteous Christmas tree dressed in purple to share with you using -yet again the Frosted Forest Bundle!!  The possibilities are endless with this awesome set and I can't seem to put it down! lol

This card design follows the new sketch challenge at Sunday Stamps! and I used the Autumn Expressions Dies to create a picture frame to highlight my Christmas tree.  I used the masks for the smallest pine tree to add Highland Heather, Petunia Pop and Gorgeous Grape inks with Blending Brushes.  These masks are SO fun!

Did you know that there are several different ways to use the Autumn Expressions Dies to create a  picture frame?  For this frame, I used both of the die cut centers and layered them over the top of each other to create a slight Petunia Pop cardstock outline. 

Here's this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps! created by Heather:
