I know, I know, posts have been falling off lately. I'm still on vacation and doing work around the house and now getting ready for back to school and work. Give me another week or so and it should all get back to normal.
Today's card is for Simplicity's One Layer Wednesday challenge which is trees. While this card looks simple, it did take me a while to find the image and sentiment. It works though.
The card base is from Recollections. The image is Gina K. Tree Silhouettes. It was coloured with Stampin' Up watercolour crayons then misted with water. The sentiment is Sweet 'n Sassy Autumn Blessings.
I wasn't all that happy with the image when I first stamped it but once dry, it has that great watercolour effect. This is the first time I've used this sentiment and it is perfect.
I hope you enjoy this card and come back to SPI again soon.
