Lovely as a Tree

March2

Winter is still here… but I’m not in the mood to stamp snowflakes. And since I live in Wisconsin, spring is a ways away yet. So here’s a batch of quick-and-easy cards perfect for this getting-sick-of-winter-but-it’s-not-quite-spring-yet period!

Lovely as a Tree

I started out by creating my cards from the following Rich Regals cardstock colors: Ballet Blue, Bravo Burgundy, Elegant Eggplant, and Taken with Teal.

Using the scoring blade on my paper cutter, I scored two lines on the bottom of each card.

Then I stamped my trees in black ink on the top right side of each card, making sure to stamp off the edge of the paper.  I followed by stamping my sayings in black ink on the left side of the paper.

For some of the cards – I was done!

For a few others, I added some snow with my white gel pen.
