It's been warmer here the last few weeks, with the trees now in full leaf and sunny days more frequent. Sitting under a tree in the garden yesterday, enjoying the shade and gentle rustling of the leaves inspired the idea of this card. The Just Add Ink challenge this week provided a simple template and the round birch leaf shape fitted perfectly.
The birch leaf is stamped in Garden Green on Garden Green card, then fussy cut to show off the lovely detail. Mounted on an embossed card showing the elegant trunks of birch trees forming the perfect backdrop. Some ink daubing on the sentiment toned down the whiteness, tying it in with the colours. Finished off with a couple of dewdrops to signify the soft supple new leaves of the season.
Thanks for stopping by!
