For my tree...I used a tree from Serenade which is a solutions cartridge. It was a fun cartridge to play with. I will admit this was my first cut from this cartridge-- it's definitely different to get used to not having the book to go along with the cartridge but I think I managed to do okay.
I could not decide on a sentiment for this card so at this point I have just decided to leave it blank--let me know if you have any ideas!!
As I was putting the card together I found a random sheet of printed designer paper in the blue and that served well as the background and sky! The leaves needed a little bit of something so I used some stickles to brighten up the card. The grass was cut out using my trusty grass punch from Martha. Then as I was finishing the card I decided it just needed a little bit more and I decided clouds it was. I had already turned my cricut off and didn't know of a cloud cut off hand-- so I used my punch from SU! the cupcake and used the frosting from the cupcake as clouds for my card!

You are kidding me right? Cupcake frosting punch for the clouds? You're awesome Sarah! You know - I have the same problem with the solutions/lite cartridges. Way to jump in!
Sarah, that is such a creatively genious move with the clouds! Fantastic and the tree is so delicate and pretty. Reminds me of a light spring breeze. Boy, seeing all these tree cards is giving me spring fever for sure! LOL Great to be designing with you!

What a super card! Those leaves look fantastic! I think this card could be used for almost any occasion, but would be especially good for a "Thinking of You" sentiment. I'm so pleased to be working with you at FCCB too.
