Blossom tree
Posted: March 17, 2009 Filed under: Branch Out 7 Comments
Here is my first effort with the Branch Out set. Although our trees are nowhere near looking like this and our grass is just beginning to appear from under the ice and snow, I hold out hope that I will see blossoms blowing off trees in the not too distant future.
The first thing I did was stamp the tree in Close to Cocoa Craft ink, then embossed with clear e.p. To make the blossoms I used versamark and Pretty in Pink so I could emboss them in clear also. I then ripped a piece of paper to make the hill shape and kept both pieces so I could mask the hill area while I sponged the sky with Bahsful Blue and Ballet Blue, then vice versa for the grass, which is sponged in Garden Green.
Thanks for dropping by, I hope you are enjoying some spring where you are.
Supplies:
Stamps: Branch Out
Inks: Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, Garden Green, Close to Cocoa Craft, Pretty in Pink, Versamark
Cardstock: Whisper White, Pirouette Pink, Garden Green
Also: clear e.p.

That is so springy! Oh I wish I could see the blooms already, what a lovely sight that would be. Love your ink resist. Definitly makes the blooms pop with the blue sky. thanks for joining us on CCC.
