Here’s a funny story.. you may have heard me share it in one of my videos. I was using the Beautiful Trees dies for these cards, and I thought that there was only one new tree die cut set… but, I soon discovered that there is also this one called Inspiring Canopy dies, part of the Inspiring Thoughts bundle!! Of course I had to play with it and create a pretty encouragement card! I just hadn’t noticed both options in the new Stampin’ Up! catalog!
I created the colored tree trunks by sponging several shades of tan and brown ink onto Basic White cardstock (see below)
The “canopy”, or leaves, were created by die cutting the leaf dies several times in different shades of green cardstock, then using a blending brush to add even more shades of green!
After finishing this card, I was going to leave it without a greeting, but then I saw this Be Strong, Be Brave sentiment I had stamped and die cut with the Many Messages set, and thought it seemed perfect to make this a special encouragement card!
