Trash Polka

Morning and we have a new Spots and/or Stripes challenge at Unicorn- the card I have to share today was slightly inspired by Trash Polka --so much that in less than half an hour I made a card -one postcard and a set of 3 ATCs lol using the same stamps.
The tree stamps are from Crafty Individuals(bought nearly two years ago and unused)all the texture stamps are from Crafters Companion-stamped with Distress ink and Izink-very pleased with these just stamped and no overthinking.

    I love trees and these are among my favourites, yet I don't seem to use them much...probably because they're stored in a different place from my other tree stamps. This is great - atmospheric and just the right amount of detail. Lovely.

    Sometimes not overthinking works out just great, as in the pieces you created. I'm a hopeless overthinker. Somebody stop me! I had to look up trash polka. Never heard of it before. Here I am under that rock again!

    Those tree stamps are so gorgeous - you must be so happy that you pulled them from your stash and inked them up :) I love the combination of elements you used - the pink and yellow add the perfect pop of colour to your black and white scene. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Jill
