365 Cards Day #24

The challenge on 365 cards today was a challenging one (lol). We were to create a nature scene within our card. I knew immediately that I wanted to use my $ Michael's stamps. I love the little tree and the sayings are really cute. I'm a wannabe "green" person so this appealed to me. I decided to use blues as my base color (like the sky) and I knew I would use green ribbon (my grass) at the bottom. I tried to add dimension to my trees by stamping them in a lighter green first and then going back over with a darker but it kinda just looks blurry. Overall, I think it's kind of neat. Then I added my sentiment in a scalloped yellow circle (my sun). BTW, my eyelets are way croked (crop a dile holes are too big!)but I will fix it tomorrow. I am sleepy... Hope you like it:
