The tree on this card isn't an SU stamp, but I wanted a full tree that was oriented vertically, and the one in "Lovely As a Tree" wouldn't do. The trunk was colored with watercolor crayons, and the leaves were done with watercolor markers for stronger color. I didn't waste the cut-out paper from the corner punch; I glued those pieces onto the corners of the inside of the card for embellishment.
