Shopping Our Stash is Out on a Limb.....that's the challenge for this week, it's really and easy one all you have to do is make a card with Trees, foliage, etc. I know a lot of you readers have Lovely as a Tree from Stampin'up it's been a staple for eons, I have that set but decided I had another set that has never seen ink, sad isn't it. I bought it years ago when I was in Ottawa at the place that made theses stamps. It is from Sunshine Designs. I also took a couple of liberties with the sketch from the Crooked Stamper.
As you see this is a long narrow card, 3 3/4 X 9 inches it fits in a #10 business envelope. This whole card was made from scraps I had here at the cottage left over from other cards I made. I know now you want to go looking for the other card I made with the patterned paper. lol.
Here is Spring with the blossoms and Summer in full foliage and a hot sun.
This one is Autumn with it's cool breeze and Winter with the snowflakes and holly
I am entering this in:
I did flip the sketch and it's a great one too.
Thanks for stopping by today and dig out those tree, branches any type foliage stamps and join in at Shopping Our stash for the Out on a Limb challenge.
I have always liked the four seasons set, but could never figure out how to use them. This is super!
