I made this with two stamp sets that I picked up at JoAnns the other day...killing time is dangerous for the wallet :0) I seem to be in a blue mood today...Everything I have made is in shades of blue.
I used close to cocoa craft ink and clear ep on the own and black versafine and black ep on the leaf swirl. I think I should have used the brown again, but this is the way it is....so it will stay. The dp is from a Earth's palette pad from hot off the press. the stamps are by Inkadinkadoo except for the watercolor minis used to make leaves on the branch Kitty style. The hardware is some of the edges from Close to My Heart.
I think this is going to be a retirement card for one of our many teachers who are retiring this year. Probably the math eighth grade math teacher just down the hall. I think he'll appreciate the effort as he is a bit of crafter himself.
