I was needing to make a thank you for my neighbor who gave me this darling garden bench die. How happy I was to see two challenges come back-to-back to inspire me to get this done!
This week's Way to Use It Challenge was to use a tree (WT498 - Try a Tree 9/25/14) and following that was this week's Free For All Friday Challenge (F4A240 9/26/14) "Au Naturale", to use natural fibers like wood, burlap, linen thread, etc. Both were PERFECT challenges to inspire me!!!
This was a really simple card to assemble, once the die cuts were made. I struggled with the issue of the bench "floating", with nothing to anchor it visually to the bottom of the card. Wish you could see the pile of grass die cuts I have on my desk as discards! I thought about sponging or stamping underneath the bench, but I didn't want to mess up the CAS look I had going. Any ideas on what I should have done, design-wise, to anchor this bench to the card scene? I'm open for suggestions!!!
Thanks for stopping by to look at my birdies on the garden bench!
