Happy Sunday!
I had time to create a quick and simple card using a leftover piece of Yupo paper that I inked up with some Ranger Alcohol inks and some Blending Solution. I had it sitting in my stash as I didn't get time to create a card with it until today.
I just picked up this great Tim Holtz birch die and used it to cut some heavy white cardstock. I placed that over the inked background and glued it all down. It made for a super quick card front.
Next, I placed the piece inside my Misti and stamped the PB sentiment with black ink to make it pop.
Like I said in a previous post, I am getting so much use from this simple set.
I die-cut the deer and glued that over the tree bkg and mounted it all over a simple white card.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

ReplyDeleteKaren, there are many birch tree cards out there but yours made my mouse stop on its very own! It captures the peace of the forest and wildlife in the most creative, effective way using materials only an artist would choose. Thank you for sharing this inspirational piece.
