Warm Winter Window

This is in honor of my Queen for the Day friend Judy (jaydekay on SCS).
Memory Box window and bird cage die cuts, Martha Stewart bird punch, Cuttlebug ef, Lovely as a Tree stamp set by SU and branch die by SU, with some Dazzling Diamonds "snow". To make the wood look of the window I used my ink pads, swiping them on the cardstock going all in the same direction. First I used Sahara Sand, then Dusty Durango, finished with Soft Suede. So easy!

Lovely As A Tree

Lovely As A Tree, Small Script stamp sets, Autumn Meadows paper, and polka dot ribbon by Stampin' Up. Dusty Durango card base. Image colored with markers and watercolor pencils.

Lovely As A Tree

This card is for the Featured Stamper challenge on SCS today honoring Lois (Clownmom). I kept the tree and basic layout from her card and changed the paper, ribbon, stamps, colors, and background. I used the Priceless swirl in Chocolate Chip and the little flower in More Mustard. The leaf is from Autumn Days stamped in Bermuda Bay, Ruby, Dusty Durango, some stamped off once for a lighter shade. The striped strip of designer paper down the center is from the Autumn Meadows pack. I wanted to mute it a little so I covered it in the organdy ribbon and added a bow. Brass hodgepodge hardware frames the sentiment from Season By Season. Lovely As A Tree stamped in Basic Brown and daubered with Apricot, Ruby, Pumpkin Pie inks and Old Olive for grass. Supplies are Stampin' Up, some retired.
