happy birthday

  hello lovely crafters!

I'm playing along with a couple of challenges today - inspired by the latest sketch at freshlymadesketches #fms605 and used the colours from the colorthrowdown #ctd762. 

I used a cutout from some packaging that I thought looked like tree rings, and began with that! The leaves were die cut from ink smooshed card and backed with rust coloured card. The acorns were die cut from Kraft then lightly watercoloured to give them an interesting colour. The sentiment was stamped then clear heat embossed. Thanks for stopping by today!

  • dies: gummiapan acorn and oak leaf, MFT infinity circles
  • inks: candied apple, vintage photo distress oxides

  2. I am equal parts impressed that your tree ring came from a packaging and disappointed I can't search for the stamp/die you used, as it works so perfectly here! Thanks for playing along with us at FMS this week.
