Brayered Background Branch Out!

Branch out is really a cool set! I am really loving the trees. I trade to get this set, and so happy that I did!

It was one that I really caught my eye at the beginning of this catalog and I didn't purchase it, due to trying to not buy every set just "because".
So, finally now, playing with it, it is really so sweet.
I brayered the background in So Saffron. For some reason, I was dreaming in So Saffron last night, and thinking of making a card using So Saffron.
I only brayered 2/3's in So Saffron, and then I sponged the ground area using a mask in Always Artichoke, Old Olive and Kiwi Kiss.
I sponged the top corners in Baja Breeze, because it is the sky after all....
I then stamped the tree in Chocolate Chip and then stamped the leaves using Always Artichoke and Old Olive. I wanted to give this a summery cheery look with a calm feeling of making someone feel good. Do you think it achieved this?
It is layered on Baja Breeze and Chocolate Chip....ready to send!
READY FOR THE RETIRED LIST???
