Hi there!
I'm popping in with my third card as September guest designer at Freshly made sketches ! Kim's turn this week with this wonderful layout :)
There is a fine line between honoring a sketch, and being creative with it. I hope I achieved that with my card today!
I used:
To create the effect on the tree, I started with watercolor smooshing on both the tree trunk and tree top separately. I then stamped the woodgrain on the trunk and the grungy background on the tree top. I finished off the tree top with some watercolor splatters.

I used:
- Tree cutting file from : Apex Cuttables
- Bird cutting file from the Silhouette store
- Stamps from Kaisercraft and Great Impressions South-Africa to create the patterns on the tree trunk and tree top.
- Sentiment from Altenew
- Distress inks for stamping and watercoloring
- Foam tape for dimension

I used the offset function in the Silhouette studio to create the popped up panel .
