This is for IC339 and bibelot is our inspiration site today. I was inspired by a beautiful scene found here: http://www.bibelotshops.com/index.ph...+Postcard+Book
I just got this Tree Stamp set from Impression Obsession and wanted to use it to create a fun scene. I posted another card this moring using the matching Tree die that coordinates with this set. Check out my blog post today if you would like to see the dies I used. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kitti...weet-home.html

I love the tire swing and wanted it to be a main focal point of the scene. I thought the open fence gate in front of the tire added interest and dimension. What a fun set of stamps and dies to play with.

Love your scene reminiscent of younger, lazier days swinging on the tire swing. Your fence die is beautiful, and I love how you have it swinging open. As always, your scene is wonderfully detailed, Kittie. Beautiful card!

How pretty, Kittie! Love your little gated scene. Have to tell you...every time I see a tire swing I think of the movie "Brother Where art Thou" and the line about the happy little tire swing, lol.
