This card sort of kind of fits Becky Oehler's latest challenge, compose a card. You can find details on her blog here. I was actually thinking of it for a few days and I just couldn't wrap my mind around making a card that measured 5x7. Also, I'm trying to collect a stack of cards to send to Operation Write Home and their preferred size is A2, so this card measures A2, but does adhere to the general proportions and colors in Becky's challenge. Can you tell I'm Johnny-one-note lately? I just love the Through the Trees set and for some reason, I keep using this tree image when what sold me on the set was the birch trees. :) I just really like it and I really like it in white. I pictured this card as a daydream, dreaming of the love you have for someone you miss. So I deliberately chose the 'thinking of you' sentiment rather than 'I love you' because the card really expresses missing someone in a romantic sense. Thanks for looking.
Stamps: PTI Through the Trees, hearts background set and random flourish

This looks awesome! I love the main image. I like how you used Text Styles on the bottom of the tree. It almost looks like it's supposed to be the grass. Nice work!
What a fun use of hearts and the tree! Great take on the challenge!
This is so sweet! Love the little hearts in that fabulous white tree. :)
I love this tree too...so pretty with those hearts, and I'd say you made a difficult color combo really work!!
This card is beautiful Peggysue!! And so thoughtful!!
I, for one, love that tree so much that I want to buy it! You should be compensated by PTI!! :) Love the look of the writing under the tree! And the hearts are such a cute touch!
What a pretty card! I love the hearts hanging in the tree branches.
This is beautiful. Love how you did this tree.
This is gorgeous! I love this tree done in white embossing with the added little hearts. And I agree that the text under the tree works perfectly.
Very nice! Love how you made the tree white and added the little hearts. I think it is cool you are getting a lot of use out of this set! what a great thing to do with the cards too!
Love how you used this set.
Great take on the challenge! I love those little heart in the tree and the way you grounded the tree with the "text" grass.
Love your heart tree!
