Just playing...

with my tree image from DRS Designs...check them out here: www.drsdesigns.com

On this first one I used SU! Linen in Vintage Violet on VV for the background and then layered my scallop punches...the sentiment is Peace in 1/4 in casual snap stamps...I outlined the sentiment and the moon or sun depending on how you want to look at it! with my Stardust pen. I inked the image with chocolate chip ink and sponged the sky around it. I ran SU! organdy around the card and popped the image on leftover stamp rubber. Just a simple card...

And another...I really like this one - makes me think spring!! I used watercolor paper for my card...I stamped the tree by first inking it with a brown marker to omit the moon...

Then I placed a piece of cardstock with an oval opening over my card and sponged my tree "leaves" first and then the sky and grass. I I added highlights for the grass with a Q-tip dipped in darker green, added some grass blades with my marker and some flowers with a Q-tip dipped in pink. I hand drew a couple of birds flying in the background too! My sentiment is stamped in 1/8 casual snap stamps. I love this ribbon by Offray - found it Walmart and the colors are awesome!
Well, I'm off - lots of things on my to do list for this Friday...both work and play...hoping to be back later with come catch up challenges and other fun stuff!
See you soon...

I absoutely love these two tree cards. For some reason trees are very attractive to me, guess that makes me a lovey, dovely tree hugger.
