I've got 2 cards to post tonite, unbelievable...right? The first is a birthday card I made for my Aunt T in January. I used Colorbok and My Mind's Eye paper, Inkadinkadoo stamp, and DCWV chipboard, plus my Fiskars punch. This card was easy cheesy, because I wanted to keep it simple.
My next card took some brain power, but I like the result.
It is a tree (in case I did such a bad job you can't tell!) and I freehanded the trunk, then used my circle punch to cut out a bunch of circles. I ran a few of the circles thru my Cuttlebug, using the Swiss Dots folder. I then used a piece of transparency paper (acetate) and used my Nestabilities to cut out a scalloped circle that I also embossed with the Swiss Dots and layed that on top of the tree. I added some red buttons to look like fruit on top of the transparency to give it a 3D look. I also used a piece of K & Co. paper as my background and the stamp is Papertrey Ink.
Enjoy!

I love both cards!! The tree is my favorite though, I love the swiss dots on the circles and the buttons for fruit! Won't it be nice when we can pick fruit from the trees this summer!
I love the apple tree card (of course, I loved my birthday card before I saw the tree :) I adore the swiss dots and the layering, but those "button apples" steal the show. I am inspired.
These are great!!!! I LOVE the button apples!!
Very lovely tree. Looks like mine from this post
