It's time for another challenge at The Male Room and this week we are asking for Leaves and Trees. I decided to use this lovely tree from the Lovely as a Tree set. Although I've used the set a few times I haven't used this particular tree before.
I used two shades of green on the stamp - Always Artichoke and Gumball Green - which gave the impression of light and shade on the leaves. I stamped the small leaf in the set onto Always Artichoke cardstock and cut them out and dded them to the corner with a matching candy dot. The paper is chocolate chip from the neutrals paper stack. I made this a while ago and can't remember what stamp I used for the sentiment but it is probably Teeny Tiny Wishes, cut out with the word window punch and mounted on a banner cut with the Itty Bitty Banners set. Don't forget to go and see the lovely makes from our DT.
Great card for those pesky men!! Lovely backing papers too. Hugs, Carol S.xx
