*Featuring the retiring set Trendy Trees*
I'm a little sad to see Trendy Trees go - I really like those adorable trees! Here, I stamped one of the trees on our wooden sheets and punched the image out with a circle punch.
The background was created using the Faux mosaic technique. I used a sheet of sticky sheet glued down on a piece of cardstock, placed randomly cut pieces of patterned paper over it (great technique to use paper scraps and finish those paper packs up!) and then covered the cracks with embossing powder.
The sentiment, from the Curly Cute set, was embossed on vellum and layered over a piece of blue cardstock. I wrapped a piece of linen thread around the top and added a piece of Tango Tangerine pompom trim at the bottom (from last year's Occasions mini - I think that trim is still available in the Clearance Rack if you'd like to get some).
