COLOR BURST TREES


A week or so ago I pulled out some dies that I had to have but not sure I'd ever used.  I had a stack of papers that I had made using Color Burst powders. One of the dies I had out was "Tall Trees" from Penny Black. 

The idea for the card came from Pinterest but I changed the vertical card to a horizontal format and instead of a square "window" I used an oval.  The window was cut into a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inch piece of ivory card stock.  The sample I saw mentioned putting a piece of vellum behind the window so I did too but not sure that it was all that necessary since the piece was added to a card base.

The sentiment was stamped with a Taylored Expressions stamp and then cut with the coordinating die.

Thanks for coming by today!
