The Kitchen Sink Challenge #29 is to make a monochromatic card. I really stepped out of my box when I made this card! LOL I was using the KSS multi step lilac set and for some reason my mind saw trees instead of flowers, so I went where my thoughts took me and came up with a green Christmas card. I don't have any KSS sentiment stamps for Christmas, so I used some green twill to add the sentiment. I created the snow with a glistening snow writer and added some dazzling diamonds before it dried. The DP is from the Basic Grey Jovial pack, and the glittered green card stock is from DCWV.We're in for a rainy, chilly day here in PA, but I wish you sunshine wherever you are!

Wonderful holiday card! Creative use of the Lilacs as Trees - they do make lovely bushes! Love the addes glistening snow! Thanks for playing along with us at Kitchen Sink Stamps.
Can't talk myself into getting dressed and going out into this yuck. Glad I pick my own hours at work! You are such a clever girl, I see the bushes perfectly! Way to think outside the box, my friend!

Carol,
LOVE the idea of using the Lilacs as trees!!
Can't wait for Christmas to see the real thing... trees all covered with snow! Thanks for the preview!!
How pretty! This is really using your stamps to their best use! This would qualify for SCS's challenge yesterday, to use greens!
lilacs as trees....proves to me that my imagination is pretty stagnant and yours is fabulously churning away.....how clever you are...and a gorgeous scene
OMGosh, I would have never known that those stamps were lilacs!! How cool that they look like pine trees now with snow! It's a beautiful card and all that glitter makes for a sparkly card. Love that paper too! Nice job, Carol!!
STUNNING card!
Oh Carol, this is just amazing! I so love your "out of the box" thinking here! The Lilacs really do look like snow dusted bushes! This makes a wonderful holiday card! Thanks so much for playing this month in the Kitchen Sink Crew Challenge! Hugs!
