Blooming Tree


I just LOVE when the trees start blooming in the Spring!  This card was designed with that in mind, yet I still kept it "earthy".


I stamped "Text Style II" on the background of the tree & border and also added tiny flowers from the CHA "Floral Fusion" set.  I bought some "vintage" twine from an antique store and tied that around the panel to add just a little more texture and visual interest.

Thanks for stopping by today!  Hope you liked this card!  Have a great day!

Supplies (all PTI unless noted)
Stamps: Through the Trees, Text Style II, Everyday Blessings, Floral Fusion
Paper:  Simply Chartreuse, Terra Cotta Tile, Kraft
Ink: Terra Cotta Tile, Simply Chartreuse, VersaMark, Jumbo Java VersaMagic
Other:  Twine, Pop Dots
