For today's Sketch and Alphabet Challenge-Letter J: Japanese Maple Leaf
Stamped in Tangerine, fussy cut then sponged in daffodil, tangerine and cajun craze around the edges, adhered with a sticky dot so the edges could curl a little. Sponged around the small white panel & added 3 clear sequins. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta

What beautiful colors you added to that leaf, Roberta. Our next-door neighbors have this tree, and it's lovely in all seasons.

it's simply another lovely card with it's image supporting the sentiment. But what truth there is in both! I love the narrow pattern strip on the inside.
Your Japanese maple is beautiful. I have 20+ Japanese maples in large glazed pots on our patio. They bring happiness to me all year round.

BEAUTIFUL and realistic coloring of your Japanese maple leaf, Roberta. We have a dwarf one in our landscaping and this is how it looks in the fall. A stunning crisp and clean card design with today's sketch.

Roberta, this is absolutely gorgeous. Outside my craft room/office is our dwarf Japanese Maple. They are such lovely little trees and you captured the beauty perfectly in your leaf. And the sentiment is wonderful and so true. TFS.
