I love creating dimensional projects and Lady Days was the perfect inspiration for me. I crimped a piece of caramel cardstock and went over the ridges with the brown ink pad. I cut out the tree trunk and limb using deckle scissors. I sponged in a sky area on white cardstock for the background and then attached the tree trunk to it. I cut the swing and punched holes and attached linen thread for the swing rope and then attached to the limb and card base. I layered the crimped frame over the scene and created the tree top and garden area with punched foliage and flowers. The little sign under the tree says "welcome to my garden". I added yellow stickles to the flower centers and dazzling diamond glitter to the tree foliage for sparkle.

Your creativity never ceases to amaze me, Kittie. I love how you used these punches to create your tree leaves and the crimping on the tree trunk and swing is fabulous. And, of course, your floral designs always inspire. Beautiful, beautiful scene!
