I just love this stamp by Elzybells Art Stamps! The stamp itself didn't have a tree in it. The swing was just on the limb. I didn't think that made much sense so I drew in the tree with SU markers. And of course the ground under a swing is always worn down so I added a bit of brown and black to make it look more real. When I was rubbing the colors together, the paper started to ball so I just left it.

What a cute card with this little girl swinging. Reminds me of a tree I had a swing on as a little girl. You're quite the artist drawing the tree and that was a good touch to show where the grass is gone from her feet pushing against the ground. Very good job!!

Perfect! I love how you 'completed' the scene! Is the 'la la la' part of the stamp? If not, how perfect to add that as well! Great coloring and a fun card!

I always love any images of little girls on a swing. Maybe it reminds me of when I was a little girl... Anyway I love that you drew your own tree, too.
