Lydia shows you how to make a beautiful Twilight Tree card. To make this card, you will need dye-based ink pads in light blue, dark blue, orange, rust, light green and dark green. You will also need chocolate card stock, white card stock, a tree stamp, a decorative filigree-style stamp, a rubber brayer, a natural sponge, a brown water-based marker, and a white gel pen. This beautiful card is created using very simple techniques that anyone can do. For more ideas and projects, visit Lydia's blog:

This card is so gorgeous, and if I saw it in a store or on etsy, I would never believe how simple it could be to make. Lydia makes the process look so easy, and it turns out almost intimidatingly professional and beautiful! What an impression you could make-and no one would be the wiser!
