First up, I have a card using The Giving Tree, designed by Theresa Momber. What an amazing set! Can you believe I have NO stamp sets with a versatile tree? Well I do now and I LOVE it. My favorite tree is the Oak, and I love little oak tree leaves in this set. I made this tree with full on green leaves, but wait until you see it with "fall colors". Beautiful.
My next card uses the Nesting set, designed by Asela Hopkins. This is a set of 5 stunning images with 3 word sentiments. This is the perfect set for all you nature lovers. I used the butterfly image and colored it with copic markers.
I used this week's Fall To Layout for the sketch on this one. Here is a picture of the inside:

I absolutely love the Giving Tree stamp set. I have been looking for a long time just like you for a tree that is versatile enough to use for any season. It would be cute at Easter with little eggs hanging on it too -- or Valentines with hearts on it. A great set. Your cards are all wonderful, but the Giving Tree is my favourite!
