Oh No!!! NOT Another Tree!!

I thought I'd take a shot at this tree in the Stampin' Up! "Thoughts & Prayers" stamp. What is the deal with me and trees lately??? Can a tree come back to haunt you??? Last December we had three trees removed from our yard. Two in the back and one in the front. Only one was diseased. One was under the power lines enough that the city decided they were tired of trimming it every few years and they removed it. So now we have no trees in the backyard. And the one in the front was a huge pine tree at the end of the driveway that was leaning. We figured one good storm and it would be down across our yard and the neighbors. It was a healthy tree but it was leaning. We will be getting the trees in the backyard replaced. Maybe I should wait until then to make more tree stamped images!!! LOL

Ok aren't you glad you know about my trees now?? LOL

I stamped the tree using Certainly Celery and I went over the trunk and stems with the Chocolate Cip marker.

The "Happy Birthday" was done on the printer a while ago. I had printed out a full sheet of them!!!

The beautiful decorative paper is Bella Rose. I just LOVE that paper.

I used Riding Hood Red and Chocolate Chip card stock.

It's a very simple card to do too!!

Thanks SO much for visiting today,
Wanda
