Sheltering Tree

1. Stamp your tree base in Early Espresso.

Tip: Use a pierce pad under your whisper white cardstock when stamping the tree to get the best results.

2. Ink up your leaves in Pear Pizzazz and stamp them once.  Then slightly turn your stamp and stamp a second time without re-inking the stamp.  The second time will be lighter.

3. Ink up your leaves in Mossy Meadow and stamp it once on top of the Pear Pizzazz leaves.

Tip: The various shades of green will really make your leaves and grass pop!!

4. Lastly, stamp your grass in Pear Pizzazz first.  Slightly move your stamp and without re-inking it up… stamp it a second time.  This will give you a lighter shade of green.

5. Finish your card by inking up your grass in Mossy Meadow and stamp it on top of your Pear Pizzazz.
