Here we are again, Monday and just 6 weeks to Christmas, can you believe it. I haven't even started my Christmas shopping, thank goodness for the internet.
This week at Live and Love crafts Sandy has given us the theme of "Christmas Symbol" to follow. I believe I have a couple in this card. My symbols is an obvious one, the christmas tree which I have done in white and used some pearl string around it.
My second symbol to me is the house, or the front door with a few bricks, lol. To me Christmas is about family and opening the door and welcoming everyone for a little christmas cheer.
I have used the MajaDesign "A Gift For You" 6x6 paper pad. Love love this collection.
I have used Cinamon sticks tied with natural hemp cord, cones, flower spray and red berries. The white rose was made using the roses roll up die.
I have added to the Dutch Doobadoo Front Door a candy stick charm and a prima resin door lock.
Here's the tree with some pearl string wrapped around it. You can also see on the right hand side the Noor!Design Snowflake border die and I have added little flower centres using the Dutchdooboo Stencil and structure paste. I added some red brick disress ink to the mix and and applied the paste through the stencil onto white card. Added a little irridescent fine glitter and then cut out the individual flowers and added to the centres of the snowflakes and also onto the door panels. They match the paper :)
I have added a little snowtex to the branches of the trees. You can also see the gorgeous lace at the bottom too.
A close up of the cinamon sticks tied with natural hemp cord and a little snow tex. You can also see the softwood bricks from DutchDoobadoo below, also covered in snow tex.
The bark heart also got a dashing of snow tex and structure paste. You can also see the little poinsettas on the paper.

Beautiful and very welcoming. It must have taken a lot of patience though to create the tree with those punched out branches, but a great idea. :-)
