First things first... here is Kim's Sketch #665:
And here is how those little friends lead me down their forest path...
and we quickly put them to work in our Paper Christmas Village...
my 'snowy' background is that newest embossing folder:
Bark - by Simon Hurley from Spellbinders.
Of course, there were many more where those came from...
I even managed to make a new little woodpile for the village from the 'leftovers!'
Which reminds me we need to get that Village out this weekend! Until then, I better get this 'hand-deliver-only' card into the FMS gallery!

Your birch trees and bark are a perfect backdrop for these lovely deer, Michele! And the woodpile will be a wonderful accent for your Christmas village!
I'd forgotten all about those birch tree straws and how creative they've become in your hands Michele! I think you translated from the sketch perfectly with the trees, and they look fabulous against that awesome embossed background! And of course the sweet deer...so glad to see they came out to play again too!! Wonderful card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
EEEK! I love this...those little "logs" are perfectly for your background! SO sweet!
How genius of you to make straws for background of birch tree’s I adore your idea. The deer in front just sets the card off Beautifully. Your card is simply Stunning Michele. Oh ! Your logs are so cute for Your Winter Village . 🩵⛄️❄️🛷🎄🦌
Those are the coolest straws ever! They're perfect for your village and they look amazing on your card with this set which I've looked at many times. I got on a deer binge and will start sharing tomorrow. Now is when I feel like making Christmas cards, but the rush is on.
Yes, I think this has 'hand deliver' written all over it lol. LOVE how you have used these 'birch' trees, what a fabulous card!
How fun and clever is your take on the sketch! This is fantastic, Michele and so are those straws!
Birch patterned straws?! Aren't you the clever one! The 3D effect makes for a wonderful background for your darling deer!
Wow! Those birch straws look amazing. What a neat card, Michele. And how fun to see the straws, er, trees in action! Thank you so much for sharing. Happy crafty weekend!
What an amazingly creative use of the sketch! It's absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
What a find those birch straws were, Michele. You've made good use of them for your village and this darling card.
Your amazing design skills and those awesome "finds" put this card into the FANTASTIC category! You are truly amazing, Friend, as this is a wonderful card. However I can't believe that Village isn't up yet, I distinctly remember it in March!
How clever !!!! I would never have thought of that those straws are so much fun and look amazing on your clever,clever card. (Lots of clevers here) and those dear deers are so sweet.
