I think if you look at my last post, you will notice that I seem to be going through a graph paper phase. I believe it is my new favorite pattern to use! For this card, I stamped the eclipse tree onto some paper from the Butterfield collection and cut out the trunk from the graph paper. For the "leaves" of the tree, I stamped the tree onto the green paper from the same background paper you see on this card. The only problem with using that green paper was that it blended too well with the hills. To make the tree stand out better, I colored over the edges of he green paper with an olive colored pencil. To finish the card, I added a bunch of pistachio colored rhinestones to catch the light.
I would also like to thank everyone for submitting cards for my $100 Memory Box Bucks contest. The cards are wonderful! I origionally said the winner would be posted on the 6th, but it now looks like it will be the 7th or 8th. I am sorry for the delay!
Beautiful Laura...Love it!!
