I'm sharing a card today that I made for one of the challenges by Maren, which is to create from something you were inspired by in a Paper Crafts publication: USCAC5. Now I don't know about you, but I have several Paper Crafts publications, so I chose something out of my current Paper Crafts magazine for May/June 2010. On page 27on the right hand side, there is a Mother's Day Card with scallops.
Well, this card is the opposite, 'cause it's a DAD card, but I was inspired by the simplicity of the sketch and the color scheme. But, I dunno...I'm thinking I need to paper piece those trees with some lighter colors or perhaps stamp them in a vanilla ink...what do you think?
