Happy Kitchen Sink Monday! For my card today, I have used the multi step Pine Trees set. I stamped the tree as follows: Step 1: Mellow Moss, Step 2: Old Olive, Step 3: Always Artichoke and Step 4: Basic Black. I then distressed the image panel with old paper distress ink.

I paired the image with some wonderful holiday DP, ribbon from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store, and some half backed gems from Zva Creative! I then finished the card off with the sentiment which is from the Ready 4 Any Holiday set.
