Another really cool challenge! Thanks, Julia! You WOOD think of another great one, WOODn't you. LEAF it to you. You're KNOT kidding! You know how to go with the GRAIN. OAK-ay, OAK-ay, enough of the puns, I know, I'm just BARKing up the wrong TREE. I need to BRANCH off in another direction. LEAF it alone. I'm being a PINE in the ASH. I'll stop NEEDLing ya. I must SPRUCE up my jokes. I'm just a CHIP off the old BLOCK. But I got your LUMBER...
Anyway, moving right a-LOG,...
my CARD
has two wood hearts that were bare naked. I clothed them with Twinkling H20 paint, sponged brown dye ink along the edges, and drew stitches with a gold gel pen.
The pregnant woman was colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol, and then I colored overtop that with Twinkling H20's.
Designer paper by Cosmo Cricket.

Ribbon was from a huge pile that Deb, aka, 88 keys, graciously gave me!
TFL!
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the poor jokes.
There,
I apologized TREE times! :-)
