 This is my second post today.  Be sure and check out the post below.  SU is bringing back The Deal of the Week Promotion.  Happy Friday To You All.   It’s always nice to have you here.  The card I’m sharing today is one I made a while back.  Lovely As A Tree is an Oldie but a Goodie.  Shelly Gardner talks about this set a lot, it is one of her favs.  For my color combo I was trying for the good ole fall feeling.  Cardstock is Perfect Plum, matted with Creamy Carmel.  I took a scoring tool and scored 1/4" on all sides.  I don’t think you can see that in the picture.  Next mat is Perfect Plum again 3 1/8 x 4" topped with Soft Suede 2 7/8 x 3 3/4", topped again with Whisper White at 2 5/8 x 3 1/2.  I also used the leaf from the Autumn Days set #115452 and the sentiment is from Fresh Cuts #111634,  Inks are Ruby Red, Perfect Plum, Old Olive,  I used my blender pen with my markers for the tree colors.  It’s a great technique, be sure and give it a try.  Punches used were the Small and Large Oval Punches and the Scallop Oval Punch.  Oh, I did emboss the tree with Choc Chip Craft Ink and Clear Embossing Powder and used my Heating Tool.  For some pizzazzzz I used a Dew Drop.  I’m always happy to help you with your shopping needs and answer any questions you might have.  Just drop me a email and I’ll be happy to get back with you.  Be sure and check out my post below.  Stampin’ Up has brought back the Deal of the Week.  This week is punches.  Great gift ideas for Christmas.  Oh no, you say not Christmas,  It’s never to early to think about Christmas.  LOL  Also tomorrow is National Card Making Day,  I hope you can stop by,  I have a very special card just for you.  TFL  Toodles
