The background was created with Melted Chocolate (how appropriate) Dylusions Ink. I stamped using two tree trunk grain fragments from the new Nature Fragments set with Gathered Twigs Distress Ink. I embossed two trees from Fantasy Woodland and sentiment from Birthday Words with brown powder. I blended Broken China Distress Ink over the trees and label.

This makes a really great masculine card. I love the wood grain nature fragment and that luscious brown in the background. Those stylised trees and the raffia - perfect for the men in our lives.
ReplyDeleteThis looks absolutely splendid Shirley & I love the way the watermarks & blotches in the background colour echo the roundness of the tree rings & really add to the whole woody sense especially with your raffia. I absolutely love how your red-orange brown complements the blue-green of the your matting, trees & sentiment. Your leaf charm echoes the shapes & balances your trio of trees. A lovely unusual delight that looks good enough to eat but won't add inches to the waistline……………..
