Aspen Grove And Some Pretty Ribbon!
Welcome to ourCreate With Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration challenge is this photo:
Our Aspen Grove stamp set is a neat one. See all of those birch trees on my card? They are all individual stamp images that you can use spaced out the way you want. You can also use one, two, three or more trees…as many as you like!
I also added leaves to my trees by stamping twice without reinking for a light and dark shade of the ink color. Notice the pretty ribbon too? It’s from our Last Chance list so if you fall in love with it like I did, make sure you buy it soon before it’s sold out!
