Anyway I did manage to get a card made for the Create challenge to incorporate wood on your card. I got a little casurina twig from outside, tied several green ribbon and fibre scraps to it and viola - a Christmas tree! It's kind of a Charlie Brown scrawny type of tree but I like it. :)

Cardstock: (Kraft) Gina K, (Yellow) Bazzill Basics
Stamps: (Holiday Background) Hero Arts, (Sentiment from Holiday Tree) PTI
Inks: (VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko

I always preferred the Charlie Brown kind of trees. This one is cute. Playful.
Perfect way to use up scraps of ribbon Jen. Cute card :)
Ah,..Charlie brown perfection! This is so so cute!
Great collection of ribbons, they've made such a funky tree! And the star at the top is fab with it's bit of bling!
Hope Luis is better soon and you can retrieve your crafty time.
I remember when Gav was in bed for 2 weeks when he ruptured a disc ... and he went insane. You are soooo right! Men are NOT good with pain. Love this little card. So clever, Jen! Hugs xx
Can't think why you couldn't puppy sit Franklin whilst creating in your craft cave!!!!!! ;) Can you imagine the fun he'd have!
Love this tree , the perfect shape and a genius way to use wood on your card :)

Jen, this is FABULOUS!! Love everything about this card. So clever.
Brilliant Jen - you are clever! Hope Luis is feeling a bit better (for your sanity's sake!)
busy week! you deserve a weekend in the cave to recover ... injury partner's are the worst! ... this card is awesome and something i could try, may have to pin and CASE it my sweet ;)
We Charlie Brown our little tree on purpose :) They're my favourite kind! And I love your ribbon version to bits - what a great way to use up some of those ribbon ends that never make their way to the wastebasket... (only my house, right?)
...and duh, I forgot to say omg, I hope Luis is back up to speed soon! I have found over the years that it's only the minor things that make my hubs unbearable. The major surgeries & health scares he is completely self-sufficient, which is nearly scarier! That said, sending healing vibes so that you don't end up having to throttle him to keep your sanity :)
I love this ribbon tree, Jen. So, so cute!
This is brilliant, Jen! Such a perfect tree. I feel your pain (and Luis's) -- when my husb had a back problem, it was not a fun time.
This is one of my top favorite cards OF ALL TIME! I LOVE IT!
Just darling! So innovative!
I saw your amazing card on the blog! Just a super wonderful christmas card.
Oh my goodness! I saw your card on the CREATE blog and it was the most fabulous one! You are so creative!! Sorry to hear about Luis...hope he's doing better. :)
Oh this card is amazing. YOU are just too clever, Jen.
PS: Hope Luis is feeling better soon...and you just keep taking deep breaths, Sweetie!
I love this card! Just wanted to let you know it will be featured in a post called "Ten Fabulous Christmas Ideas" at Freehand Scraps' blog next week.
