Lovely As A Tree for Paper Craft Crew Inspiration Challenge #PCC312

Hi and welcome to Mitosu Crafts UK. It's Jay here with my DT card idea for the latest Photo Inspiration Challenge at Paper Craft Crew #PCC312

Although Autumn has arrived, the weather has been mixed lately. It is definitely colder in the mornings on my way to work even when the sun is out!

So just like the photo with the sunshine peaking through the trees, I created this simple looking card with Lovely As A Tree stamp and a bit of sponging

I used the Stamparatus to ensure this CLEAR mount stamp is straight for the horizon then stamped with Versamark to heat emboss the tree outlines in Black

I created my own stencil by stamping the same outlines on scrap paper and cutting the horizon. The two pieces were utilised for the masking and sponging techniques on the card

I applied Balmy Blue first followed by Mango Melody for the top part. I then switched stencils to sponge the Granny Apple Green grass

On the bottom left of the card, I sponged Soft Sea Foam lightly then stamped another design from the same set

Once I was happy with the overall look, I embossed the card front with the Subtle DTIEF through the Big Shot

The sentiment comes from All Things Thanks and was punched with the Classic Label Punch

I was shocked when my sister told me that she preferred the cold weather many years ago. She continued on and said that it's easier to get warmer than to get cooler! It does make sense and Barry says the same thing also. Which season do you prefer?

Make sure to check out the other Design Team's creative inspirations back at the Paper Craft Crew challenge blog and play along our Photo Inspiration Challenge #PCC312 by submitting your own handmade creation

Thanks again for stopping. Until next time, BYEEEEE!

Lovely As A Tree for Global Design Project #GDP160

Hi and welcome to Mitosu Crafts UK, thanks for stopping by. It's Jay here with a card idea for the Global Design Project challenge #GDP160. It's CASE The Designer this week at GDP and I took inspiration from Krista Frattin's fabulous card below

Krista used the Rooted In Nature Stamp set and matching Nature's Root Framelits, so I opted for another tree image from Lovely As A Tree stamp set

Most of the cardstock I used for this project are off cuts, the Sahara Sand stitched ended up being hidden behind the stamped leaves as it's not a full square! The stitching on the main tree topper was customised to fit the tree using the same square stitched die creating a slightly rectangular topper

I stamped the tree in Early Espresso then filled an Aqua Painter with rubbing alcohol (isopropyl) to colour the rest in Shaded Spruce. I also did this for the background, stamping the leaves in Granny Apple Green then diluting Balmy Blue with a bit more alcohol for a lighter shade

The sentiment comes from All Things Thanks, stamped in Tuxedo Memento and punched with the Classic Label Punch then snipped both ends. This was adhered on top of the Ribbon Border punched Sahara Sand cardstrip

I punched a hole in the Garden Green strip to be able to tie a bow using the Mint Macaron Nature's Twine then stuck the sentiment with dimensionals
