WT632 = Celebrate Earth Day! (use earthy themes and colors on your creation). The challenge gave us a great colour chart of earth tones.
For the background panel, I used smooshing with Distress inks on watercolour paper. I used three different colours and ended up with quite a large piece of smooshing. I trimmed it down to my favourite section and then stamped and heat embossed an inchie stamp on a bit of the leftover. I die cut it with a little square die and also die cut a brown branch.
I mounted the smooshed panel on fun foam, glued on the branch (letting it hang over the edges of the panel), bordered the inchie with a bit of white cs to make it stand out more, and placed it on the branch in such a way that the die cut branch lines up with the branch in the inchie image. Since the image is so little, I went with a small sentiment.

This is so beautiful and your creative combining of that pretty inchy stamp with the die cut branch really makes an extraordinary card. I love the earth tones of the background.

This is so nice, it reminds me of a post card - but a really super fancy one! Gorgeously done!
