Lovely card Ros. Something keeps telling me I need this Stamp set and dies. Your card gives me a very peaceful feeling with that cool night sky and I can almost see the trees blowing from a soft breeze. Love it! :)

[Catherine Proctor]

Ros, I love how the Always Artichoke adds an entirely new dimension to your card--the mix of greens for the trees look amazing!

[Claire Daly]

Wow, that shaving cream galaxy background looks amazing and I have to agree about the mixed colours on the trees. Fabulous!

[Christine Blain]

Lovely sky, and I really like the mix of greens you've used for the trees, Ros. Beautiful card!

[Judy May]

This is gorgeous, Ros. Your blue background looks awesome with the all the greens in the trees. Must check out that technique.

[Sharon Davern]
