I'm so sorry that my post is late this week for Swap Sisters I came down with some kind of virus and I have been sleeping virtually since Saturday. I was only well enough tonight to finally make my card for this weeks challenge over at Swap Sisters. The challenge this week was to use/incorporate something 3D from nature, together with a nature themed image. Scrubby had just trimmed all the small pine trees in the backyard so when I walked outside that was the first thing I spotted so that was it for me lol. Besides being far too sick at the time of getting my nature bit, I knew I could do something with it. The stamp set I used was a two step set which is now retired. The brads used are from Rich Regals and I also used Hemp Twine. Cardstock used was Always Artichoke, Mellow Moss and Whisper White. I used retired River Rock, Mellow Moss and Basic Black stamp pads. The button and ribbon are from my stash.
In the meantime. . . .
Walk about your day with creative beauty.

Michelle, sorry to hear you were under the weather. This card looks great and I like this new banner on your blog better than the last one.
Green with envy over this card Michelle (sorry bad pun!!) Love the way you have carried the elements thru fm the background to the front. V clever lady.....even when under the weather. Be well soon ooxx
Great card! I love that stamp set too. It's sad when favourites are retired.
Loved the feel of you card Michelle. It's looks so "fresh" and I bet it smelt beautiful as well.
Thanks for incorporating some great techniques into your card.
Hugs
