Through the Trees

Hello Everyone! How are we enjoying this fine Monday, I am pleased that it is Monday, because I am now on the down hill run for the weekend, Yippie!

Today's card I decided to break out another set of Papertrey Ink stamps that I received the other day.

I started with white card stock for the card, folded in half and set aside. I then took a piece of Papertrey Ink, Aqua Mist card stock and my Papertrey Ink, Polka Dot Basics 2, I stamped medium sized polka dots with Papertrey ink, Aqua Mist making sure I covered the piece of card stock. I then ran it through my Cuttlebug and cut a die shape using Spellbinders, Labels 8 die. After cutting the die cut out of the Aqua Mist card stock I then took my Papertrey Ink, Throught the Trees stamp and stamped a set of trees from this set with some black ink onto the Aqua Mist card stock. I added dimensionals under the die cut and placed onto the card. Lastly, I added a sentiment from the same set of Papertrey Ink, Through the Trees stamp set at the bottom of the card and some rhinestones either side of the sentiment.

As the header of my blog says "Less is More", well this card really reflects my style. I really am very happy with how this turned out and am looking forward to using more of Papertrey Ink stamps to create some lovely cards.

I hope that this card is inspirational for you today and I will see you all tomorrow for another card.

Thanks for looking.
