Branching Out

It's a microchallenge at Caardvarks! Our new Branching Out challenge is all about trees of any kind. Have your card(s) linked to 'Varks by Sunday April 13th at midnight. The winner of this challenge will receive a few small stamp sets by Penguin Pants! I engineered my palm tree creation above with considerable coaching from my friend Celeste. The tree and two shapes used to make the sun came from my new DoodleCharms cartridge for the Cricut. Details are here.

This card was a lot easier to make. It uses one small strip from one sheet of paper and several colors of cardstock. The trees around the sentiment were handcut to use as embellishments. Details can be found here. So why not go out on a limb and try this challenge?
