shades of c9

Had another idea for a card for the Where Creativity meets C9 challenge...



I'd nearly forgotten that I had this bottle brush tree set called O Christmas Tree (shame on me!) but when I ran across it I realized how cool a forest in Concord and 9th teal/blue tones would look. Agree?

Thanks for stopping by. I'll have a warm color version of this card for you tomorrow. Hope you'll come by again. Have a great day!

    I have to give this a triple WOW! I think this is a genius use of repetition and the varying shades are so beautiful. What a powerful visual punch you've packed. This is a totally new take on the ombre effect and I must steal your technique at once! Thank you so much for sharing this inspiring piece with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
