A Beautiful Tree
I was out with my son and daughter on Saturday and we saw this beautiful tree! It was so vibrant, I had to take a picture of it for my blog. It was like we were standing right in front of the sun. Even though my card isn't as grand as this tree, I used the photo as inspiration. After die cutting the leaves in a piece of Early Espresso cardstock, I lined the front of the card base (which is also Early Espresso) with orange/yellow pattern paper I had in my collection. This way, the pattern paper would show thru the leaves when the top layer was added to the card base. I added a strip of the same pattern paper to the bottom of the card on which I had stamped a sentiment. (I wish I would have added a little twine above the pattern strip, but too late!) The finished layer was adhered on the card base using dimensionals. Adhesive dots and Fall color sequins complete the card with a Very Vanilla liner on the inside of the card base. Have a great day!
I am married (50 years now~~oh my!) and have two children:
Jen and Matt. Jen and her husband blessed us with a beautiful granddaughter who is now 19 years old. I am also a "grandma" to five dogs, 2 birds and more! My dog, Charlie, is our spoiled Shihtzu and I have a cute little parrotlet, Nipper, that is 8 years old.
