I had such fun creating this Trees For Sale with Trailer greeting card! I used the Trees For Sale stamp set and the coordinating Tree Lot Dies that are one of the free Sale-a-bration choices when you purchase $100 or more during Sale-A-Bration.
The background of this is one of the patterns in the Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper. It is perfect for backgrounds like this. I hand printed the sign. I used Basic White cardstock that I lightly colored with a Smoky Slate marker to simulate a reflection on the glass for the windows of the trailer. The trees actually were a reject from another card I created with this combination of stamp set and dies. I stamped the solid trees on Basic White cardstock with Evening Evergreen ink. Then I stamped the details with Basic White ink, hoping for a solid white color. However, I like the end result as it blends nicely with the background. A bold solid white would have stuck out.
