Lovely as a Tree
Yay!! New Rubba to play with. I’ve been looking for something more masculine now that I’ve parted with Balmy Breezes *sob*. I’d seen lots of stunning cards made with Lovely as a Tree, so it was time to lash out (and YES Marelle I bought them! 😉 )

This first one is a CASE, again it’s been cased so many times, I’m not sure who the original artist is. A great no layer card. I’ve used the technique Reverse Masking where you cut out a frame from scrap paper and work within that area instead of around it as you would with normal masking.
Colours are Always Artichoke and Chocolate Chip

This next one is mine, well almost, it was a sketch challenge, but the rest is mine 😉 The tree is coloured with Watercolour Crayons and a Blender Pen.
Colours are Chocolate Chip, Kraft, Mellow Moss, and Whisper White. The stamps used are Lovely as a Tree, Weathered and French Script. I’ve sponged Choc Chip on all the layers and have paper pierced the edges of the triangles.
Very happy with this one!

Love this beautiful card, WOW! Look forarwd to frequenting your blog that I just found this morning :)!
Absolutely stunning Alisa, sitting here mouth agape!
Can I state the obvious??!? WOW, WOW, WOW! Love them to bits!
Once again you’ve done it Alisa – you and Marelle are both soooo inspiring! And YOU spent $$$ on stamps *thud* (that was me fainting from shock!)
WOW.. I love your cards… in my favs!!! First time on your blog got your name on Jan’s, I will return.
Thanks, Kim
Two wonderful cards Alisa!! I love how you sponge the edges it makes everything look so classy! Great masculine cards.
I’ve never liked Lovely As A Tree until now! Girl, I think you could sell me any SU set that you’ve made a card with! TSF – your blog is wonderful.
LOVE them Alisa! Glad you put all your Ebay earnings to good use!! 😉
WOW! Your cards are lovely! I especially like the first one!
Fabulous Alisa! I love this set too, it’s extremely versatile. Me too, I’m impressed that you spent some money buying rubber. LOL.
Once again, great cards, love the 2nd card especially. You have a wonderful talent….thanks for sharing it.

Very nice Alisa!! It’s a great set for a man. Love the colouring on the 2nd one!
