I decided to go with my very first upload, however, I used a stencil instead of stamped trees. I'm away from home and have very limited supplies with me. I sponged around the stencil, added a diecut bird and popped the sentiment up with foam tape. When I first started my gallery I was fascinated with the baby wipe and polished stone techniques. I'm now so spoiled with all of the dies available and have a few stencils in my collection. Here's my first card from 2005

Both cards are lovely, Sue. Besides the new tools we have at our disposal, we have gained so much knowledge about techniques here on SCS. Each of your cards is a great example of this. Love how you put the colors on with your stencil on this card #2.

These are both lovely, Sue. So glad that the trees stamp is still available at SU. They have retired so many great ones before ther time, I think. Love the stenciling on the redo card. Pretty colors used too.

Your card just goes to show what a wonderful card you can create even with limited supplies. I really like the use of the colors combined with the stencil. TFS
