Today I'm sharing a thank-you card I made with SU!'s lovely as a tree. This pretty stamp will never go out of style as far as I'm concerned, and it always makes me feel peaceful somehow when looking at the trees. I stamped them on a snippet of dsp and added another snippet of cardstock for the lower panel with a HA sentiment. I added a few mini star brads and called this one done. I'm entering this card into the Words 2 Scrap By #11 challenge which is gratitude and kindness.
I make lots of thank-you cards for OWH, so I decided to make another one using this simple design and same stamp...
For this one, I went with a different colored lower panel and card base, and used some SU! candi dots instead of brads. I try to make each card I send to OWH a little bit different, plus it enables me to use up more snippets this way!
Speaking of Snippets, I'll be taking these cards over to the Snippets Playground #150 to share with all the wonderful playmates....and Parsnip too :)
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great weekend! I heard the country is in for some seriously cold weather later on next week. I'm so not ready for that yet..........then again.............I'm never ready for bitter cold weather :)

These are two very nice cards each a class act. Love that you stamped on your designer papers. That always adds another beautiful layer to the overall look. Have fun today. I know chili is on the menu and it is the perfect day for it.
A wonderful thank yoy design and you are so right, the trees are very tranquil.

I love your tree cards Carol and I agree that the stamp is timeless and very versatile in it's uses. I like the textured card you used as well.

Love this stamp and your cards are very beautiful both!
You're right Carol...this is a classic stamp! Great design too! We have been spoiled by 70 degree weather here and my flowers started blooming...they are confused and I am happy! Not looking forward to the cold either!
Trees are one of my fave images...love the layering and lo! tfs!!!
They are gorgeous, super use of the snippets, the dsp makes a perfect background. Hope the cold weather stays away a few weeks more.
Love and hugs

For sure, that is a keeper stamp. I love it. Your dsp looks great for the background, too. It looks like a nice snow falling.
My son was just telling me about the cold coming. I haven't been able to even view the weather and not as much news as I like, lately.
They both look great! I love that stamp too...
Both cards are fabulous Carol! I love these trees and like you think they will never go out of style-they are timeless in my opinion! Love the color combo's you used in both cards Carol. And I love star brads and the little candy dots. Too cute! Hugs, Brenda
Hi, Carol.
I always feel like a broken record when I tell you how lovely your cards are. But, there's no denying the truth. :)
What a lovely image -- quite peaceful, indeed. And, I love how you stamped on dp and accented in black. Such a classic look!
So glad you joined us at Words 2 Scrap By! Thanks for playing along with our November challenge.
I am in complete agreement with you on the Lovely as a Tree set - it is one of my favorites! Love how you stamped the image on the dsp, and black sets it off perfectly. Thanks so much for joining us at Words2ScrapBy.blogspot.com!!
Super image and card.... fabulous design..xx

Always love this set - it is so peaceful. Lovely card Carol. I was going to mail you your blog candy you won, but I think I must have deleted the email you sent with your address. Can you send it to me again at kwilliams6@elmore.rr.com? Thanks!!!!
Sometimes you and I read each other's mind. My Lovely set is out and waiting to be used. These look spectacular, Carol!
This is one of my favorite stamp sets too - and always forget about it! Thanks for the reminder.
It's marvelous!!! Peaceful looking and just beautiful!

Hi Carol! Your card is so calming...I love that stamp and the colors you used. Thanks for sharing with us at Words 2 Scrap By.
This stamp set is as old as the hills... or maybe just the trees. It is a long time favorite for sure.
