Free For All Challenge - F4A653 - Frame It - August 26, 2022
This is my second card for this challenge, using a more detailed frame this time (though both cards happen to feature blue and green, which was not planned!).
I used a dark blue background to depict a night sky and then attached the green leafy frame on top.
I stamped, colored, and die cut the image and was able to disguise where the branch tucks into the frame by adding a few extra loose leaves cut from a second frame.
I stamped the sentiment and added white stars so that the white sentiment wasn't so stark and to make it more obvious that this is a night sky. I don't recall where the stars came from - they were cut out of white cardstock and leftover from another project.
Fun challenge!

GREAT combination of elements making this such an appealing card! Love the night-sky background of navy dsp & stars. Great greenery edging die-cut with that cute sloth on a branch!
