Branching Out ~ A Stampin' Up! Card

Today's card features the stamp set Branching Out and is inspired by sketch #682 at Try a Sketch on Tuesday and the DTC Challenge #203 - circles, images and ribbon, twine or cord.

This was a pretty simple card to create if you don't mind fussy cutting. I stamped the branch and pine cones with Crumb Cake, then touched the edges in Early Espresso ink before I stamped each piece for a two-tone look. I did the same with my pine needles. I stamped them first with Garden Green, then in the top corners of the needles I inked them with Shaded Spruce. Once the image was stamped I fussy cut it out and used a craft knife to cut out a few inner pieces.

These are the two challenges I played with. As you can see I rotated TSOT's sketch, but that's nothing new for me to do. Adding on the double trouble challenge was simple, so why not?

Make sure you check out what all of the other designers at Try a Sketch on Tuesday created HERE. If you get a chance to play along we'd love to see what you create!
