Joy To the World - C4C #116

Hi, everyone! it's Crazy 4 Challenges time! Today's challenge is to make a card or project inspired by your favorite Christmas movie. MY favorite Christmas movie is Christmas Vacation. I LOL every time I see it! I chose the scene where they're trekking through knee-deep snow to find the perfect Christmas tree for my inspiration. The scenery was pristine and simply beautiful. I'm using three MFT sets for the front of my card: Inspired by Winter, Merry & Bright, and Inspired by Caged Bird. I had so much fun with my card last week I decided to airbrush my background again and use the Wonky Scallop Border Die-namics die for my snow. After I airbrushed the background, I stamped in the trees. To get the trees in the distance, I simply stamped off once and stamped them a little lower on the paper. 

Here's the inside with a sentiment from Clearly Sentimental About Christmas, another bird, and more trees. AND, now I have another mail-friendly card to add to my stash!

And that's all for me for now! Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to check out what the rest of the design team has for you!
