The challenge over at Less is More this week is "More Than One Tree"; I didn't count how many are on here but there's definitely more than one! The starting point for this card was the sketch over at Addicted to CAS and a very old set of stamps by Woodware, coloured with Promarkers. The finished result looked a bit flat & boring so I added a touch of Wink of Stella to the red and the stars, which you can just about see in the photo below. The card was still flat & boring so I finished off with a gold edge to the image & greeting, which were both popped up on foam squares.

ReplyDeleteLove your take on the sketch Helen - the gold edging looks fab. and really makes the focal point "pop".
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining our ATCAS Sketch challenge - Sylvia x
A very striking card - love how you have interpreted the sketch with your tree images. I can never (rarely) combine challenges - just not organised enough I guess, but your card does this so well.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet and pretty, Helen. Your contemporary trees are lovely.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! You can never have too many trees or tree stamps, Lol!
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely Helen, they are really cute trees!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much
