Hi! This card was made for today's Color Combination Challenge: Pretty in Pink, Going Gray and Sage Shadow.
Wow...Talk about a very pretty combo! I LOVE it! I decided to MAKE my tree today. I used a Holly peg stamp from Rubber Stamp Tapestry's Cardinal in Holly to create the tree. I inked the stamp in VersaColor Celadon. This is VERY CLOSE if not a PERFECT match to Sage Shadow! To soften the color, I used a stiff t-shirt painting brush to lightly "blend" the color into the center of the tree.
I sponged in VersaColor Old Rose for the shadowed background. This is a VERY close match to Pretty in Pink! To finish off the tree, I added in gray half pearls and a satin ribbon.
