Happiness Grows Card


I came home from the Scrapbook Expo (in Duluth, Georgia) with the twelve new colors of Tim Holtz Distress Oxide ink pads.  Woo hoo!  I used Twisted Citron and Pickled Raspberry along with the older colors of Broken China and Spiced Marmalade to create the background on the stamped tree (plus strip under circle).  I colored the tiny hearts on the tree with alcohol makers.  I also put "dot dabs" of glitter Mod Podge on the tree using a large headed stylus.  This happy rainbow tree is going to be linking up at the following challenges:

Winnie & Walter's Rerun Challenge (use Kindness with Evelyn T. Designs set)
