Beauty of Friendship

I love nature, especially how beautiful it all is. I marvel at the stunning colors in sunsets and sunrises, the promises of rainbows and the quiet sparkle of a foot of snow. I have to admit that part of my love for nature resides in trees. Whether they are stark naked in winter or fully dressed for summer, they intrigue me. I love creating with them too which is why I have so many tree stamps!

The trees for this card create a look of a small forest. To create that I stamped the darkest trees first with full ink. I stamped the next tree without re-inking the stamp and then again the third tree. I repeated this process to create the forest. After the trees were stamped, I used my blending brushes to add some Evening Evergreen to the bottom fo the card and Pool Party to the top. The bird does have Wink of Stella on it. I adore that stuff!

Beauty of Friendship

I'm sorry I have been missing in action lately. School has started and I have new responsibilities that require more time. That means I have less time to work on this blog. Please be patient with me while I try to find a balance to complete everything. This is important to me so I will be working on it!

Beauty of Friendship was one of the first sets that I really wanted from the catalog. I love trees! They are so majestic and beautiful. I am working on a set of scrapbook pages with this set too. 

I started with Mossy Meadow card base and added a layer of the Beauty of Earth designer series paper. I added a layer of vellum on top. The vellum adds such a wonderful softness to this card. I forget to use it once in a while but I'm always happy when I add it to my cards.


Cinnamon Cider is the card base for this next card. I think this card has a fall feel to it but I'm so NOT ready for fall! I love the heat of summer. See, my tree is still green!


This is a peak-a-boo card. I layered Misty Moonlight with the designer series paper and die cut a circle in the middle. 


You can see the full tree that is peeking out the window. This card is one of my favorites. The soft blue and green makes me truly appreciate God's creation that he gave to us.


We took a family vacation this year to the Smoky Mountains. It was one of the best vacations I have ever taken. All my girls, my husband, Abi's husband and Miriam's boyfriend were all able to be with us. We were able to spend the whole week together. The forest on the mountains were spectacular. Another reason I just love this set and these cards. I truly look forward to making more and scrapbook pages too!
