Loving the Tree Stamp!

Hiya! Here's another couple of cards using my new tree stamp. I've been trying the brayer out again. I find it really difficult and very messy, but I love the effect of brayered backgrounds :)


I'm entering this one in The Crazy Challenge 'Men Only' challenge.


I'm entering this one in the The Squirrel and The Fox 'Anything Goes' challenge.


I showed these cards to my other half, to get some feedback, and he said the stamp was a bit pointless, but the background was nice! Well, at least he likes my attempts at brayering, I suppose. I was lucky to get any sort of compliment. One night when the girls were round for a card making night, he walked in and said; "oh, good. You're all sticking bits of card to other bits of card.' He really doesn't appreciate our efforts!!!

Jen your brayered backgrounds look terrific, I have got some of the brushes from inkylicious, that I must try and use for a similar effect, I have tried brayering but I fail miserably. That image and the colours are truly wonderful.
