HIGH HOPES CHALLENGE # 52








Good morning everyone.
I hope you are having a great weekend so far. We are having some great weather here in SW Ontario and it is supposed to last for the rest of the week. Everyday without snow is just fine with me!!

Today's High Hopes Challenge is brought to us by the lovely Lacey and she has designed a fabulous sketch for us to follow.

The images I am using for my card are "Remembrance Tree" and Miltons' "Fall Harvest".



I embossed the images with black and painted them with Tombows.I masked Milton and stamped the tree over him. I added a few more grass tufts and stamped and embossed more apples, cut the apples out and glued them to the tree. I used my EK Success border punches and the flowers were also made with punches. The DP is from Scrapworks and Darcie's. I also added some flat backed black pearls.


I hope you will be able to play along with us this week and be sure to stop by the High Hopes Blog, the Diva's have created some awesome cards to inspire you!!

Have a wonderful day...
Thanks so much for stopping by....
