Tomorrow this gentlemen I know, Lester, is turning 85. His son, the State Sentator, is throwing him a birthday party in his honor. The local and state dignitaries will be there. Les is a wonderful gentlemen. It is great to have a grandfatherly figure since all of my grandparents have passed.
I made this card for him. I was stumped what to do. I knew I wanted to use the Thoughts & Prayer tree, but I just was stumped what to do. So I looked at todays inspiration challenge for well, inspiration! I found it! I found this awesome belt, and it totally inspired my color pallete.
I used choc chip as my base, then used craft as my side layer. I double stitched using choc chip marker, then I layered my main image with close to cocoa and kraft, then stitched with choc chip again. My tree is dones in close to cocoa and old olive.
I really hope Les likes his card. I put a LOT of thought into it because I was stumped for hours until I saw that belt.
Have a great evening ladies.
