Thinking of You

It's just a clean and simple stand of trees.  It's been snowing on and off here today so I spent the day in my craft room, watching it snow while I made a few more cards.  The sketch is from The Paper Players Challenge and the theme of 'trees' is from The Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge.   I really like how this all came together.  Simple, easy and a card I can send to one of my grandsons.


Stamp(s):  Colorful Seasons (Stampin' Up!)
Ink(s):  Shaded Spruce (Stampin' Up!)
Cardstock:  Shaded Spruce, Whisper White, Gray Granite (Stampin' Up!)
Patterned Paper:  Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper (Stampin' Up!)
Dies:  Evergreens Die (Taylored Expressions)
Other:  Subtles Embossing Folder (Stampin' Up!); Icy Sparkle Crystals (Studio Katia)

Here's another view of the card.  I did run the trees through the Subtles Embossing Folder from Stampin' Up!  It gave the trees just a wee bit of texture and made them look less flat.


I'm entering my card in the following challenges:

    Lovely Marsha - I am a big fan of the subtles embossing folder, it adds such a nice touch of texture and really adds to those trees. Thanks for playing along with my sketch challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
