I have been doing a bit of DT stuff this week well in advance as I am going to be away such a lot but in between I made a couple of cards and had fun getting very inky and messy!
Typically though I forgot to take the pictures whilst it was bright!
This one isn't as sharp as I would like it to be but you get the general idea.
I just wanted a basic 'friend' card for the stash box and I really like this SU sentiment so everything was done with that in mind.
I used Carved Pumpkin, Spiced Marmalade and Dried Marigold DI's for the sky.
The bottom was inked with Brushed Corduroy and Gathered Twigs. I tore some masking tape for the ground and at first was disappointed that it wasn't a 'clean' line - but the more I look at it the more it is growing one me!
I used a paintbrush and added some more ink under the trees.
The trees and birdies were all stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa, as was the sentiment.

Coffee time for me now and a trawl through blogland to catch up with you all - and a sit to rest my aching back! x

Stunningly gorgeous, viv! I don't recognise those trees! And there I was thinking that I owned every tree stamp there was :D
This scene looks like it's been photographed, that is incredibly cool and well done!
Totally gorgeous card, stunning background and images and a fabulous sentiment.
