Here's what Jennifer created!

When I asked Jennifer which of our holiday sets she'd like to work with she suggested she could use our Falling into Autumn stamp to create a project for Christmas - and she definitely succeeded! I love this idea of creating a whole tree from the fun leaves in this set!
