Well, the Challenge 14 at the CCC is Trees and was chosen by the lovely Gran Margaret. My card was made very quickly, but I still managed it. It is a 5 X 5 card with a lovely backing paper from Craftwork Cards. Then I used dies to cut the rest. I got a Cut & Boss for my birthday and I love it, much kinder to my hands than having to crank a handle. Hope you are enjoying some summer weather as the sunny days have been few and far between this year. Seemingly August is going to be a heatwave, but we'll wait and see. Hope as always that you are well and gentle hugs to those that are suffering. Hugs Rita xxxx

Rita, It's Beautiful! Love the soft pink background with the lovely trio of trees...very dimensional the way you've placed them in a grouping. The gold of the deer and the date & that FAB-U-lous delicate corner are such awesome touches..it's such a grand card. So happy that you had a good birthday and got something fun & useful too.
