I never thought I would see the day that our Lovely as a Tree stamp set would retire from the Stampin’ Up! catalogs.  However, the day has come so it’s time to bid a final goodbye.  Yes, the Lovely as A Tree stamp set is retiring.  In honor of saying a final goodbye, the following card has been created.  You can always use it for any season.  Since trees are blooming, I highlighted the trees to look like leaves are budding. That’s what makes it such an awesome stamp set, you can create a variety of looks.  

Here are the details for the card:  First, sponge the sky in Balmy Blue onto a 3-3/4″ x 5″ piece of Whisper White cardstock.  Stamp thee trees were stamp using Early Espresso (as well as sentiment from Wonderful Romance which is also retiring).  Allow the Early Espresso to dry.  Then sponge the grass using Granny Apple Green Classic Stampin’ Pad.  The birds are from High Tide stamp set and are stamped using the Early Espresso  The Gingham Gala Daffodil Delight is the Designer Series Paper layer (retiring) and the card base is Granny Apple Green.  Use the following Stampin’ Blends colors to create the tree buds: Granny Apple Green, Mossy Meadow and Old Olive.  

This is one of the most beloved sets in the history of Stampin’ Up!.  It’s going to be hard to let it go. The stamp set is guaranteed to be available until May 24 so I encourage you to consider ordering this classic stamp set soon.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
