I was looking at all of the current challenges that I wanted to play this week while life was a little easier without running the kids to schools and practices, etc. (Plus, my husband cooks Thanksgiving dinner so I am free and easy!!) There are so many, I decided to combine three in this card!
I started with the technique challenge at Technique Tuesday: 3D Punched Elements. They have a nice picture tutorial of how to put these together! For my tree, I used two different blues and then covered every other panel with glitter - just trying to give the tree some shadow an dimension! (If you ever have group cardmaking events with kids and teens - this is a great technique to use - check it out here!)
I was going to do a traditional green tree, but the Winter Blues challenge at CAS-ual Fridays called my name. I'm glad it did, because the blues led me to the beautiful sentiment and the soft background paper.
In keeping it very clean and simple, I went with the current sketch at
iSpy Sketches.
