JAI #333 : JUST ADD "G", WITH STAMPIN' UP! TOTALLY TREES

This week at Just Add Ink, our challenge is to "Just Add G" to a papercraft project.  It could be anything starting with "G" ... and I've chosen green, and gold, and a gratitude theme.

I started off by masking a circle in the centre of my white panel. The next step was to repeatedly stamp, then gold-emboss, one of the cute trees from Totally Trees around the circle, with the trunks not showing.  I think they're a bit reminscent of palm fronds.  After gold-embossing the trees, I stamped in Mint Macaron ink the solid overlay on each one.

My stamping and embossing is (perfectly) imperfect - which I think just enhances the charm of a handmade card, really!

Listed below are the Stampin' Up! products I used to make this card.  In addition to those items, I used the retired Gold Stampin' Dazzle Marker, to edge the white panel.

Make sure you visit the Just Add Ink site, to see what the rest of the Design Team have created - and why not play along with us?

JAI #329: STAMPIN' UP! TOTALLY TREES FRIENDSHIP CARD

At Just Add Ink this week, Di has come up with this beautiful picture, to inspire us in our papercrafting:

I was inspired by the colours of the flowers, which to my eye translate to these Stampin' Up! colours:

Daffodil Delight

Peekaboo Peach

Sweet Sugarplum

Melon Mambo

Rather than making a floral card, I inked up my Totally Trees stamp set, to make a cheerful card for a friend:
