Designer Tree

A couple of cards today and tomorrow using the new stamp set from Creative Expressions called Designer Tree.  These cards were designed for a class so I have kept the designs very simple because of time. It consists of a trunk of a tree and then 3 different leave designs to stamp over the trunk and four different "friend" sentiments.




First one , timely with Valentines around the corner. I used flitter glue to stamp the hearts and then sprinkled red glitter over the top...you could use red embossing powder or a red ink pad as another technique.

 
Products Used:
 
Stamps: Creative Expressions Designer Tree, Paula Pascual Congratulations Messages
Dies: Spellbinders labels 22
Extras: Indigoblu Flitterglue, Creative Expressions Red glitter
Ink: Black Archival
 
 
For the second card I used the leaf stamp with a Green ink, making a different coloured sky behind by making a circle mask and blending distress ink over the mask. I grounded the tree using some more of the Green ink and some torn copy paper and added one of the sentiments from the set.
