Today’s card is a quick masculine birthday card. I believe it would be a sweet sympathy / thinking of you card as well. Quick and versatile, that is always a winner in my book.
Stamps
The main stamp set used is the Delicate Forest stamps. The tree and the leaves are both from this set. I love that tree! It is a single tree that I stamped twice at full strength and then the center tree was stamped off first. It stands out more in person. And the leaves were stamped down the side to fill in that area. Plus it is almost time for that to begin happening around here. Some of you may already see leaves falling.
The sentiment is the only stamp not included in the Delicate Forest set. This small birthday is from the Loveliest Tree stamp set. I kept it in the tree family today!
Papers and Ink
The card base and the Ink are both Mossy Meadow. It is very rare for me to only have one color like this. Although I did add Very Vanilla for the sentiment layer as well as on the inside. I wanted this to be a quick and easy one to duplicate.
The paper the trees are stamped on may be a bit difficult to really see. It is from the Country Lace Designer Series Paper. It has almost a linen look to it. But is very soft. It provides some added texture I believe.
Extras
The simple part of the card does include a few extras. However they are items you may already have in your stash and are easy to grab. First is the Die for the sentiment layer. I used the smallest rectangle from the Nested Essentials Dies. These are such handy Dies that I highly recommend them. With rounded rectangles, banners and a long, slim, stretched diamond shape these dies fit about any stamp you would want to use.
The next addition is the green Baker’s Twine at the top. This is a new in the Mini Catalog three color Natural Tones Linen Thread. And the final extra is the bling. Except there are two! I used the , also new in the Mini Catalog, Woven Golden Leaves. These are so pretty. They are almost see through they are so light. And finally the Regal Foiled Adhesive Back Dots that are also from the Mini. These are in a few different colors. Of course I went with the green for this pretty monotone card.
