I own both Trees 1 and Trees 2, and found the sweet sentiment about keeping a green tree in your heart. That is all I needed, and I ran with it. I did not have a bird by A Muse Studio, so I had to improvise with one from Darcies.
I started with a white base, added designer paper from Basic Grey's Lime Ricky 6x6 pad, topping it with an embossed solid blue piece that was rubbed down with Color Box, Frost White ink. I edged it with an EK Success border punch called English Ivy. I stamped my images on white using Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics. Each piece was cut with a scalloped heart die from Spellbinders and sponged with Memento inks. A couple of the negative pieces from the border punching were placed as accents, as were blue gems.
This card is perhaps for someone who is still looking for the special love. Maybe they need encouragement on Valentine's Day.
Have a great MLK day, today. Hope to see you again today.
