Hi everyone. Today I'm sharing a card using one of the new die sets from Penny Black called Windy (51-675). I love the stylized images in this tree die set.
I sponged around the outside edge of each leave with more aged mahogany (can you tell it's my favourite colour right now??!!). Once dry, I played around with the leaves until I as happy with the design, then glued everything together. The sentiment is from Good Wishes (30-541), also stamped in aged mahogany distress ink.
For the final part of the card, the tree was added so it looks like the sentiment is tucked in nicely beside the tree. The top part of the tree is popped up with pop dots, the base of the trunk is glued to the card front.

Wonderful colour combination and loving the mahogany ....x A perfect CAS card and how fun are those new dies and what a contemporary and striking card x.
Why wouldn't it be? It's the most wonderful color of Autumn for your wonderful tree, Loll!
I'm terrible, though... I'm already trying to figure a way to make this using supplies I have in my stash!
Not to take away one little thing from this wonderful PB release, I promise!

OMG...loving your new PB "Windy" die tree set watercolored with Aged Mahogany, Lolly:-) I have the Aged Mahogany, but now I must have the Windy die set!!! Love your stamped sentiment and perfect CAS design too. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
You outdid your self on the coloring and placement of those leaves. Aged mahogany was always one of my favorites so this one just jumped at me. Love the shading on them too.
I love the richness and depth of color in those gorgeous leaves, Lolly! Such a pretty tree that can hold it's own with all this white space!
This is such a pretty tree Loll and I love the Picked Raspberry and the Aged Mahogany together to give that deep vibrant red, and love the beautiful curly sentiment too. x
Those colours are wonderful together - so rich! Lovely image and layout!
Oh my, I'm in love with this tree Loll, with the whole card! Those leaves, oh my goodness, I love the color of those leaves. Age mahogany is a beautiful color and I am so loving it with the picked raspberry! You put the best colors together. Now I really want this tree die, but I'd never be able to do it justice the way you just did! lol Hugs, Brenda
That tree is way cool! I love how the Aged Mahogany combines with Picked Raspberry. Beautiful card, Loll!
what a stunner Loll, love the colours. I need to pull out my aged mahogany after seeing this.
This is stunning Loll, what a beautiful stamp and die. Gorgeous colour to use making such a striking card.

Stunning, those colours are wonderful xx
That picked raspberry with the mahogany ink is gorgeous. What a cool tree that is and Penny Black always has the best sentiments.
Gorgeous! The stylized look is wonderful
It's amazing how a CAS card can make such an impact with its gorgeous color and simple design. Beautiful card, Loll.
This crisp clean card is an astonishing. The richness and monotone feel to this card is a masterpiece. You've done honours to this die set. Beautiful! xx
Gorgeous autumn card, Loll! I love the mix of distress inks on the tree and your sentiment is so beautiful! xx
Simply CAS perfection! I love my blue colour, but I love this colour combo and the richness you’ve achieved. LOVE this card!
Oooooooh...love this Loll! I thought it was a flower at first, but now that I'm looking at it as a tree, I think I've fallen in love and just might need to go shopping!! I love your deep colors too...SOOOO pretty! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
So beautifully CAS with a stunning colour combination ..... I love the die too xx
What rich colour and fabulous dimension, Loll ... and all in such a small space ... wonderfully CAS and lovely! Hugs, Anita :)
Wow, I can see why that is your new favorite and in combo with picked raspberry it is dynamite! Awesome flower and wonderful sentiment!
Fabulous CAS card, Loll! I love it! The big white open space really shows of the rich gorgeous red leaves of the tree. The additional sponging around the edges is very effective and makes the leaves look dimensional. Your design of the card, especially the layout of the leaves, is wonderful and well-thought-out.

Such an amazing project, Loll !!! I love the color scheme, raspberry with mahogany looks so amazing. And the sentiment perfectly selected and set! The tree design itself is so surprising and innovative. This is one of my favorite cards made by you, dear Loll.
