Embossed Lovely as a Tree, PP#64

Here is my nature "plant" card creation for the Clean and Simple (CAS) Paper Players Challenge #64.  To me it's not the best photo but I wanted to show off the effect of the embossing of the lovely trees and sentiment.  This is a easy, quick but elegant looking card to make.  I’ll be featuring this card for an upcoming Holiday workshop Make ‘n Take.  Stampin’ Up's! Lovely as a Tree stamp set is a must have for all artists.   

This card never goes out of style.  I CASed it w/slight changes by my upline Brenda Keenan from her 2006 version:    http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/376566?&sorttime=all&sortby=v&way=desc&si=bkeenan256
