Week 3, Card 1 - Summer Card Camp

Hooray for a new weekly colour scheme!  Boo - we're half way through!  2 weeks have gone quickly!!

Three patterned papers!  Kristina's tips have come in handy :)



I originally thought I'd finished the card as you see it here,
but it didn't look finished.  Then I looked at it using Kristina Werner's tips about balance, and I realised it was bottom heavy with red.  That's when I added the red bling apples in the tree - I like it MUCH better with the apples :)

I actually CASEd myself for this card layout - the original design can be seen here. 

Stamps - the tree is Stampin' Up, the sentiment and the birdy are Hero Arts Clear Design: All occasions.
Paper - Stampin' Up
Ink - Versafine Vintage Sepia
Tombow marker - crimson

    I see what you mean (comparing this to your other) . . . this one looks so "polished" and balanced (not that your other one was something to sneeze at!
