I've been telling Cree I wanted to make tree prints since September, but never went out and got the trees.  At Christmas I had two very heavy presents under the tree.  Cree had found two stumps, sanded them (both sides) and wrapped them up for me.  So thoughtful.  I finally made the prints last week... it was really fun.  They turned out okay...I learned as I went and can try again.... possibly with smaller stumps.
