Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎 This mo Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎
This month, our theme is Die-Cutting, and I decided to highlight trees in my card design.

For my card base, I used Basic Gray, and I sponged the first layer with Blueberry Bushel to create depth and a lovely background for the colourful trees.
 I watercoloured the cardstock before die cutting. I love how this adds a unique touch and brings variation to each tree in colours.
Make sure you check out all the other Design Team projects below-you’ll get so many lovely ideas!
