Last weekend, I was at Costco when I found a huge case of patterned cardstock for sale. Of course, I snapped one up and couldn't wait to get home... Most of the papers are not my style, unfortunately. However, I did find some that I quite liked, including the choices I used for this card.
The tree is from Paper Pups, and the little bird and nest are from Zooballoo. I used Mini Monograms for the scalloped circle. I also did a bit of embossing and inked a sentiment with a stamp from SU. Everything else was done with a punch. There's lots of popping on here too.
I am entering this card in the
Easy Craft Projects challenge as well. This week, the theme is spring. Spring is my favourite time of year - a time to celebrate new life!
I'd also like to give a bit of credit to
Jeannie Phillips here. Her
Be My Tweetheart card was featured in the Cricut Chirp a few months ago and has been in the back of my mind since then. I just loved that card! I used her idea of the window into the tree to create my own card. Thanks Jeannie!

ReplyDeleteThis is just precious! Love how you are using the embossing. It really adds to the overall design. xxD
ReplyDeleteThese colours are amazing ... I love the idea of highlighting the tree and using pattern on it and the background.
