Yes, this is a Beautiful Trees Mistake card. I love it when mistakes turn out much better than what you had imagined. I wanted to create the illusion of bark on a tree die-cut from Gray Granite cardstock with the Beautiful Trees die. So I inked one side of the Bark embossing folder with Gray Granite ink and embossed the tree. So this is what I got. It’s not the effect I was going for as tree branches don’t have diagonal lines on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I quit working on the project. Later I returned to use one of the trees on a Christmas card and decided to emboss the card front with the Bark embossing folder. I had neglected to wash the folder off after inking it and was very surprised when the card front was not only embossed but had ink on it. I actually love the effect! It reminds me of a dense forest of trees. So I added a layer of Basic White to be snow on the ground, the tree, and some red birds. The word Joy from the Merriest Moments stamp set finishes off this Beautiful Trees Mistake card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
