Base cardstock: Colonial White Cardstock cut into a 6" x 6" square and folded to 3" x 6" card
Stamp the tree image first.
I started adding the color in the center first with Twilight and Buttercup.
From the outside and working in I sponged Twilight and then layered Pacifica over it for the pretty dark blue.
Since the "always grateful" looked too stark by itself, I added a little Cocoa sponging.
Be sure to visit The Heart 2 Heart Blog CHallenge to "soak up" more sponging techniques.
Sponging is one of my very favorite go-to tools!
I keep a box of them
What has saved me a bunch of trouble is cutting the
Round Sponge from Close To My Heart (only $1.25) into quarters and adding a card stock "handle".
Pound for pound, the Round Sponge is one of the best buys for my craft dollar.
Love this card!
