I love tree stamps, not sure why I’m drawn to them but I love the different shapes and styles you can get. Also, love it with a more modern style/twist and this Because Trees stamp set from the Just Because bundle was perfect for creating a modern summer forest skyline. The background is super simple with some fun ink blending, as you don’t need anything to steal the show from the trees. The Quint-essential collection is out today, and I wanted to share this card on release day. It uses one of the new inks, Matcha which is also in the shops today!

Using a post-it note, mask off the top two-thirds of a card panel and with a blending tool, blend off the bottom of the post-it note with Lemongrass ink. Fade this out, and then darken up the horizon with Green Tea ink. Reposition the post-it note to cover the green and the ink blend Cove Blue and Stone Blue off the top, fading out to make a sky.
Stamp directly onto the panel with a selection of trees from the Because Trees stamp set. Here I used Green Tea ink, Spruce and Eucalyptus. Position these trees on the horizon line, either side of the middle.
In addition, stamp a couple of the trees onto a separate piece of card in Matcha and Eucalyptus ink and use the Because Trees stamp set to cut these out. Foam mount the tress onto the card, clustering with those stamped onto the card to create dimension.
Finish the card off by stamping a sentiment from the Because Trees stamp set, trimming this down and adding the card. Lastly, embellish the card with a few sequins from the Tuscany Sequin Mix.
