Lovely As A Tree Birthday

Hello stampers!! Happy Tuesday!!!

Today's share is of a Birthday card that i made using one of my all time FAVORITE stamp sets, Lovely As A Tree.  This set has been around with Stampin' Up! for years and that's because it is one of the greatest sets (in my opinion).  This set is soooo versatile you can use it literally for anything.  Girl cards, masculine cards, Christmas cards, Fall cards, Halloween cards, Nature cards and obviously birthday cards.... oh my goodness this list just goes on and on!!!

This card is very basic and very easy. I didn't want there to be too much going on.  I wanted just a nice, simple winter setting to go with my Birthday greeting.  My card measures average size of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4".  I used Night of Navy for my main color so it would give it that nice "night" look.  To create my moon i used the 1 3/8" Circle Punch, punched it out on a piece of scratch paper, and then sponged my Craft Whisper White ink into the circle cut out that i made with my punch.

To get the shadow look on my trees, making it look like there is more trees descending in the background, i used my Basic Black ink pad and then i used my Craft Whisper White ink pad, stamping just slightly lower than i did with my Basic Black. I really like how it turned out!!!

Here is a closer look at the Lovely As A Tree stamp set used for today's project:

That is all for today friends.  Hope you enjoyed and until next time...
Happy Inkin'
