CASE Study #100

This is the 100th CASE Study challenge this week, so I really wanted to play.  Here is our inspiration from Kristi Lockart:

Isn't it darling?  And all stamped, too - to me, that's a huge plus!  I loved all the elements that Kristi used, the colors, her design.  My card uses all of them, but in a much, much simpler way.....this Hero Arts stamp had all the elements I loved on Kristi's in one stamping; all I had to do was color it and add my sentiment.

supplies: kraft card base, white and aqua cardstock, Hero Arts K5483 Tree Trunk, Memento and distress markers to color,  Papertrey Ink sentiment from Vintage Picnic Sentiments, EK Success diamond scallop border punch, red and white gingham ribbon
