Good morning, the challenge theme this week at Sweet Stampin' is GREEN...yes it's as simple as that...something green and something stamped! I slashed some brushos onto a piece of white cardstock and stamped my lovely tree on top then stamped the sentiment (stamps from Crafty Individuals)The background is made up of diecut strips in various shades of green. 3 little brads to finish. I used snippets of card as well as older stamps and the brads have been in the box for years...so feeling quite virtuous about this card!
I'm scheduling this post as will be enjoying myself in London on Saturday...early Mother's Day treat from my daughter as she will be away at the end of the month! I'm looking forward to spending the day with my gorgeous girl!
Thanks for stopping by, hope you all enjoy a lovely weekend too!

gorgeous green shades and a great stamp, lovely to be able to use up some old stash
What a great idea to use multiple shades of green, Chris. I actually considered you had used a paint chip in the background until I read your post - you die cut each color individually, and they are lined up perfectly! Even your 3 embellies match the green theme. Beautifully done with the Brushos, too!
Hope you are enjoying your time with daughter in London! Sounds like the perfect outing with the best of people! hugs, de
So pretty. Fantastic idea to use up some coloured cardstock that I got in my left over stash. TFS
Hi chris,
what a very fab idea all those lovely shades of green are.
Beautiful Tree stamped image and sentiment.
Hope you are having a fab time.
My Granddaughter is treating me shortly to tea at the Ritz to celebrate my Birthday last week.
So I am looking forward to that.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Oh naughty me I thought it was a paint sample card but then I saw the stitching, a really lovely tree and a great card.
