Creative Card Crew 10

Minimal is the theme set by Joey for this weeks Creative Card Crew challenge. So what is minimal in the world of cardmaking ?

I decided no DP's and chalked a blue scallop edge using an acetate stencil cut on the cricut, then distressed over with Tim Holz antique linen. I lightly stamped over the entire piece with Magenta 32090M using Hero soft sand to soften the background. Main image is Stamps by Judith (Stampaddicts) 0-90 which I stamped a couple of times, then stamped just a few of the branches to make it fuller. The greeting is Art Impression G3130 (Stampalot). Added tiny flowers, gem centre and a bow.
