I saw a tree card a while ago and saved it, as I thought it gorgeous, and would give me practice at shading.
I started off choosing what colours to use for the circles, after viewing a few mixes of DO's on the web, I decided on this Autumnal scheme. A circle was die cut out of card, and I used it to blend the colours onto the card.
Next, I stamped the trees and the sentiment in gold ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.
The theme of your entry can be any of your choosing and we would love to see "Anything stamped, option, Trees/Leaves", but most important is that the focal element is hand stamped as our preference (or digital). A small added sentiment or other element to an otherwise non stamped card will be ineligible and may be deleted.

I love this Faith, its so beautifully designed and the gold against those lovely colours stands out. xx
This is gorgeous! Those colorful circles look beautiful with those golden trees and sentiment. Gold embossing always adds an elegant touch to any card in my opinion and this is a great example of elegance.
Gorgeous card! It's very effective with those circles and their vibrant colours behind the golden trees!
What a beautiful creation Faith love how you have done those different coloured circles and embossed the trees, excellent card

These colors are gorgeous together and I really love the highlighting with that tree. Great gold tree too.
Sorry I am so late visiting this one. I have been admiring it for weeks on the DT site. I love the gold with those blended colours. Just splendid xx
This has the wow factor. I always think simple is usually more impactful, that said sometimes what looks simple is more complex than at first sight - and this is one of those. CarolG
