#DOswts418 - Sketch Inspiration

Welcome to the DO Stamper Stars Blog Hop. I am a member of the DO Stamper Stars team which is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are part of Dawn Olchefkse's leader team. Each month we participate in 2 Blog Hops, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today's feature project is based on the below sketch.

I'm having fun creating withe the new Merriest Trees Bundle & A Walk In The Woods Designer Series paper from the Sept. - Dec Mini catalog. I did not venture too far from the sketch and cut a 5 1/4 x 4 layer of the DSP which I then cut it on half on the diagonal. A great way to maximize the use of your DSP. The tree design was cut from the same DSP using the Merriest Trees die cuts. 

I love how this turned out and anticipate I'll make more of these for my holiday card stretch as you can stretch your DSP since you'll get two cards out of each cut.
