Lovely As A Tree Birthday Card

This is a great card for a masculine birthday card.  I created this card for my dad's birthday last week.  We are also going to be making this card in our August Birthday Card Class on Saturday.  I embossed the tree's on glossy paper, then did the sponging to get the color and then cut them up to get the picture effect.  I also used the Woodgrain emboss folder, a new emboss folder in the Holiday catalog.

Here is the recipe:
Lovely As A Tree )pg 84) and Teeny Tiny Wishes (pg 133) stamp sets
Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Navy, and Glossy White card stock
Jet Black StazOn and Cajun Craze stamp pads
Black Emboss Powder (pg 159)
Bashful Blue, Daffodil Delight and Rich Razzleberry stamp pads - used for sponging
Woodgrain emboss folder (Holiday Catalog - pg 33)
Basic Black 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon

Sure hope that you enjoyed your visit today.  God Bless you and your family.
