Today's WT challenge was to use clouds on your card. I bought a Sizzix cloud die a while ago and not used it very often. Today is the day for it! I needed a birthday card for my son, whose birthday is Sunday. I stamped the trees four times, masking and overstamping. The fourth tree is actually popped up, as is one of the clouds. I was looking at clouds the other day and noticed that, even on the white fluffy ones, there is some gray in them. So I edged my diecut clouds with C1 and C2 Copic markers. I used three different MFP, aHC, stamp sets -- Tree Greetings, Above the Rest, Scenic Selections.

I always think it's fun to use a cloud for stamping sentiments on . This would work perfectly for a masculine card, too, with that outdoors scene you've created.

Love how you have used all those different stamps to make this wonderful scene! I am in total agreement, the clouds do always have a little gray! Your trees look amazing and I can see how the one closest to the center of your card is popped up! Love that you put your sentiment on one of the clouds too! Awesome Birthday card, Lois!!!
