This was REALLY challenging as I wasn’t sure how to incorporate all four seasons in one card. I thought about cheating and pretending I lived in southern Texas or Florida where just about all their seasons are sunny and warm. :o) Then I remembered this set from My Favorite Things and breathed a bit easier. Still had to futz quite a bit and the first take on the card was trashed. (Please see the Ins and Outs for links to the challenge websites and feel free to join in the fun).

I used a square instead of a circle for my image, but otherwise stayed true to the sketch.

Very cute! I love the little branches going through all the seasons. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to show the seasons! I like the glossy look of the branches.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! That's awesome! And you cannot cheat. I DO live where we have one season and I didn't cheat. And I'm the queen of challenge cheating! LOL
