When I saw today's challenge I immediately thought of a card I made a long time back. I had gotten my idea from a card by jmecker. Inked the stamp with celery, used a marker for the trunks, limbs and to highlight the grass areas. Rubbed ink on the sky and grass, then I cut the trees apart, layered on soft sky and cocoa, attached the cording and put the tags on the wasabi base with foam tape. The ribbon was attached after running it through the cords and the fallen leaves were stamped and cut out. The trees are supposed to resemble the new growth of springtime.
