Denise asked us to use simplybeautiful's gallery for an inspiration for our CAS card today. I chose this CARD which featured a tree made of buttons. I combined the CAS challenge with the TLC one....which was to use circles. So, instead of buttons, I punched out small circles and "dented" them to make blossoms. (Used lots of scraps on this card.)

EDITED TO ADD: There are NO jewels on this tree...it is all paper. I think the old M's gold metallic paper is looking like gems. Guess it reflects the light in the photo.

Makes me miss VA where our dogwood was in bloom for Easter every year! Love your clever use of circles and the great texture of the crimped panel behind the tree!

I love the corrugation and all those yummy pastel flowers. The change from kraft to white is gorgeous!

Cute tree, Sallie. Love the blooms on it. The metallic paper really does look like a gemstone or sequin.
