Clean and Simple

Hello to you all,on this beautiful crisp day here in the UK, I am getting out into the garden just now to do some cleaning up of leaves and firework remains while the weather holds.......My card share today is quite CAS I have made quite a few similar to this for friends and family who don't do cute images....
I  have embossed the tree stamp  with silver embossing powder and matted the blue card with a satin type silver card,the sentiment is silver too, I know it looks slighly gold but it is all silver. I hope you like it.xxx
Supplies used
Tree stamp- Barbara Gray
Sentiment-Woodware
