This is my second project for this week. The colors are Cajun Craze, Call Me Clover and Whisper White. I thought the combo suggested a rustic feel, so I pulled out this ancient set, which allowed me to use this week's colors separately for the tree and the leaves.
It's pretty self-explanatory, subtle embossed bottom layer, then a leafy layer, stamped off to give a slightly lighter green shade, with a thin Cajun Craze frame.
I am on a campaign to send cards to my friends, near and far, whom I am not seeing these days. This card will go to one of those friends!

this is really pretty- I like the nature theme you have going on- and also the card sending campaign idea. It's thoughtful and during these crazy times friends appreciate being cared about.

This is really lovely and in these colors it makes for a great card for either male or female! I like your campaign for the year. I always start with that intention but by about February 1 it's out the window....
Keep it up!

Beautiful! I have not used this tree in a long time. Your card makes me want to find it! Wonderful texture. Thanks for the inspiration and terrific color combo to play with.

I like using the stamping-off technique since it gives different shades of the same color. You've got the perfect image to go with these colors, Barbara. I like the sentiment with added nuvo drops~
