Hello! I am so pleased you stopped by. Today we are showcasing \”Occasion\” cards at The Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and I am this week\’s hostess.
I recently won several stamps from Crackerbox and Suzy and this is my first card with my new haul. I think the tree is just gorgeous. I have been doing a lot of ink blending lately and knew this tree would be perfect for this technique. I started by masking off a 1 1/2\” border on the left of the card and then started ink blending from the bottom right to the top left. I was very heavy handed and put down a lot of ink. I added a navy mat as I didn\’t want the clean white swath to fade into the card base.

Crackerbox and Suzy Tree Whimsey stamp
