Be Inspired Cuttlebug # 39

This week the Cuttlebug Challenge blog is having a color scheme challenge with woodland creatures. Feel free to add a twig or leaf from your yard, but no snakes, please :)
I made this card 10 days ago. I was really happy at how well it turned out! I just realized when I went to post this card, that I used the same color scheme on my card yesterday morning. I guess my subconscious really likes these colors together. I used Cuttlebug Birds & Swirls embossing folder; ribbon from my stash; an SEI button; all papers are from My Mind's Eye Bloom & Grow; the critters are all Colorbok Friendly Forest; the scallop border punch, dimensionals, and scallop circle punch are SU!. The tree is hand drawn based on LFL's blog banner (lovely friend Lauren.)

Happy Wednesday!!!

Wasn't I just admiring this color combo just yesterday!?! lol
You did a wonderful job on this one. I love how you used the scalloped cirle punch for the bulk of the tree. And you know I am going to have to us the Friendly Forest stuff for my entry ;)
