Crafty Secrets Forum...'Your My Inspiration'
My Inspiration came from the JOY I received walking through the trees in Tahoe on my Girls 18th Annual Get Away. I'm still flying high from the weekend!
I watercolored the Glamour Girls image on watercolor paper with SU pads and an aquapainter.
The tree was done by inking up a cuttlebug embossing folder
with garden green and sahara sand then running through the CB. I used the distressing tool to ruff up the edges of the free form tree after I cut it.
Hope you like it!
