Time to get zooming with our speedy tree challenge at this round of As You See It #337! First up, choosing a stamp set! My retired In The Pines from 2010 was the winner for that - I actually got this one right when it hit the retiring list back in 2020, and I never got around to using it much. But I still love the trees and dies so much! I really like the hilly curves that are part of the dies, too. Anyway, I put together a loose plan for the design - I wanted to use more of my Season of Elegance DSP, so enamored with this stuff, and decided to focus on smaller trees on a tag shape from the Greetings of the Season Dies. I assembled all my supplies and started the clock! First up I cut the tag, then quick glued down a full card front and did my envelope flap. I stamped a larger tree and the greeting in Black onto the tag, then the little row of trees onto some scrap, and went back over the trees with their Old Olive fill-ins. I quick cut the smaller trees, tucked in some Linen Thread through the hole, and pop dotted to the card front - finishing with some tiny gold pearls - whew! Not too shabby at 8 minutes, 26 seconds! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - start your engines! In The Pines Stamp Set (Retired 2020); Season of Elegance DSP; Basic White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Old Olive Inks; Pine Woods (retired) & Greetings of the Season Dies; Linen Thread; Festive Pearls; #AYSI337.

This is perfect for a speed challenge, Heather! It looks so festive! I have so much PTSD after my first use of this DSP (Interesting how those two acronyms overlap) that I haven't been able to use it again. I have to get over that, because it really is pretty.

The tag is a great way to show off those pines. I still have mine too and will keep them because they're just so good.( I call that curating a collection although the less charitable might call it hoarding!) Very sensible to let the pretty paper do the heavy lifting on this one.

Those trees make a lovely centrepiece for a simple tag Heather and the DSP base adds a real festive elegance. Great speed stamping!
