I made two cards today. I used one of my all time favorite stamp sets; "Lovely as a Tree". I stamped the tree with black stazon ink, then I used 3 different colors of Stampin' Up! ink with a blender pen and colored in the foliage of the tree. The trees here in North Dakota are starting to change colors. This big tree reminds me of the colors around here.
The new designer series paper (Naturals Composition) with the wood grain embossing already on it was just the perfect paper for my card.
Here is the second card I made. I layered the tree on 3 different layers of paper. I added the pearls on the bottom for the finishing touch.

Kim, your color shading is wonderful! Liked the combination of colors and DSP too!
ReplyDeleteNice cards, Kim. I love that Naturals Composition DSP too, it looks great with your gorgeous images!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful coloring on your tree. You captured fall perfectly with every aspect of your card. That Oak Tree is my go-to stamp for sympathy cards also - love your layout!
ReplyDeletebeautiful use of the naturals composition paper in your card . . . the perfect complement to the tree stamp.
ReplyDeleteWow! I love the details in this card, Kim. So much to see, but beautifully done so that it still has the peaceful feeling one wants in a sympathy card.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful Kim. This paper is perfect for the stamp. Great job of distressing. TFS
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards. I love the little bit of first edition paper peeking out of the corner. Many lovely details!
ReplyDeleteTwo beautiful cards. I love the layering that you did on both the flags and for the tree.
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards and using one of my favorite sets as well. Thank you for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful coloring and the rustic looks so reminds me of Fall. Very lovely!
ReplyDeleteKim, aka. Blog number 19 on the fall fun blog hop, thank you for sharing your beautiful sorrow card. Sadly at times these setiments are needed. You did a wonderful job with your card. jellybeankahler@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. This has to be my favorite stamp set from SU of all times. It's a classic and you've done a great job with your cards.
ReplyDeleteThis comment is based on the pinwheel card Mary Fish posted on her blog. I like the pinwheel pattern, too. How did you create the "soft" looks on the pinwheel and on the design the pinwheel is adhered. AND, I'm mostly a hobby demo. Remember-Stampin Up My Way-keep making it work for you.
