Trio of Trees
Happy Monday! (lol) 
I have one more design to share with you, using the Lizzie Anne Designs set In the Treetop. This card, like my previous two, also uses a paint brochure as color inspiration.
I just love these rich colors, and thought they would work well with the trees! Nothing fancy here, other than a little bit of stitching with green thread for the ground, and a border across the top. I added the sentiment as a “pennant” with some chocolate brown gingham ribbon. The trees are stamped on poison ivory cardstock, which gives a lovely shimmer!
Hope you like this simple card, today. Have a good week! 
Ink: Adirondack cranberry, stream, butterscotch, espresso. Cardstock: Prism intense teal, sunflowers dark, arjo wiggings poison ivory.
Great card, great inspiration.
Darling card, Trudee! I love the colors, stitching, and sentiment banner!!
How nice Trudee….. Love, M.
Beautiful! The colors are great, and I love the stitched ground lines.
I love everything you’ve done with this set, and the paint brochures are a brilliant idea!
I am soooo loving the color inspiration! They are combos that work so well, but maybe not what I reach for, now I will!
Thanks.

This is so fun Trudee! Love your creatively colored trees! Your stitched ground is fabulous!
I love your colors, and I need that brochure!! All the things you have shown are just beautiful…thank you so much!
Lovely!!! Love your inspiration!
Very cool! I love your inspiration pieces! Very beautiful work!
Love the whimsy of this set!!!! love the colors and the card!!!! all just soo wonderful!!!
I have been watching you use colour inspiration over the past couple of days and have been remise in not telling you sooner that I think your cards are lovely. I would have never thought to use those booklets as inspiration. Unfortunately, I just can’t grasp the concept of looking at my surroundings for colour combos. I’m definately picking up some booklets on my next trip to Home Depot. This particular card combo is pure delight!!
I am really enjoying your inspiration with your cards! It is making me look at things in a different light (no pun intended!). Thanks for sharing. As always, this card is a keeper!
Wow! Love these colors together. Great simple card!
Neat color combo ideas, love the stitching!
I love how you use the paint chips to get color combo’s! These Tree’s are great and I love your sewing for the grassy area!
Great cards, Trudee, and the idea to use paint chips is brilliant! Thanks for sharing your creativity with all of us.
You’re going to make me go get some of those paint brochures. I LOVE what you’re getting from them! Super cute card, T! Love that color combo!
Oh, love the colors Trudee! Great idea using the paint brochures, love the stitching on the ground too!!
Ooooh, love this, Trudee. I am going to look at paint this afternoon. maybe I too, will be inspired! HUGS~ Angel
Love your paint brochure inspiration, T — and I especially like these colors! Love the fun colored trees and stitching!
My favorite of the Paint Chart Cards (at least that’s what I’m calling them…lol!) I just love these rich colors and the stitching for the ground such a fantastic idea! Another beauty!
Love these trees and the stitching! very cute design and so colorful!
I just love what you’ve done with these trees and your fabulous color combo. Very refreshing — bright, but in a warm and wonderful way!
Guess I’m a day late and a dollar short on this one… so how long do I have to wait to see it?
Hugs!
Missed your card…but great photo’s!
