CTMH Evensong and Paper Piecing

I received the inspiration for this card from a Paper Piecing article on the Scrapbooks Etc. website.
I used this week's sketch from Card Patterns.  Love this sketch - all those straight lines are exactly my style!!
(Sorry about the poor lighting in the photo - we are getting a major snowstorm (again) today - so the sky is completely clouded over - leaving me with very little natural light)


I made the tree by cutting several different green patterned papers into strips (of different lengths and widths) and then layering them to form the tree!  Love the effect!
Materials Used (all Close to My Heart, except as noted):
