WINNERS

My project today was made using the Impression Obsession Solid Tree Set, Tree Die, Grass Border and Arched Fence and paired with Leaf Green and The Patriot Flower Soft.
I started my project by sponging in the cloud background and stamping the tree and leaves. I created the double matted frame, attached a fence section to the back opening and attached the frame over the stamped tree with mounting tape.
I cut the tree and applied leaf green flower soft and then added the red, white and blue patriot flower soft to add a touch of color. I tucked the tree in behind the fence and attached with rolled up glue dots to add dimension. I cut two sections of grass border and applied the red, white and blue patriot flower soft to the tips to create the flower border for in front of the fence.
I just couldn’t help myself and had to add another fence section in front of the flower borders and more leaf green flower soft to soften and finish the scene. I love the open gate.
Thanks for stopping in today and I hope you enjoy following along our blog hop route. You are going to be inspired by all of the beautiful creations.
