A "Sheltering Tree" for all seasons

Hello crafters!

I hope you all had a nice weekend. I had another busy one. Last week I had a bit of time to sneak in some crafting time and decided to pull out one of my stamp sets from the annual catalogue, it's one of my favourites too... {Sheltering Tree}. It really is such a stunning set and I love to create different seasons depicted through the trees. I have TWO cards to share today, check out the first below. 


For this first one, I started by cutting my rectangles for my stamping layers. I stamped the skeleton tree forms in different areas for an interesting look using Chocolate Chip ink. I was originally going to make the stamped images go from spring to winter, but I liked the look of the bright fall tones in one corner and the soft, pretty spring blossom tones in the opposite. Then the winter vs. summer look. 

For my next card, I still went with the tones of all seasons... but a different approach. I stamped only two skeleton trees with Early Espresso ink, and instead of having tiles for the front portion I made the trees have two seasons in one. 


The first tree is spring and summer and the second is fall and winter. I think it looks kind of neat, do you?! I hope you like my cards, if you have any questions please let me know. Have a great day!!
