Stamp of the Week - The Divi Divi Tree

Wendy always has such great stamps for us to showcase for the Stamp of the Week.  This week she choose the Divi Divi Tree.

I had never head of this tree, so I did a little research.  This tree is almost a national symbol for Aruba.  It is an evergreen that grows up to 30 feet tall.  In Aruba the limbs almost always point west because of the trade winds that blow over the islands.  Wendy and her husband spend 2 weeks during this time of the year vacationing there --- Wish I was there with them!

Ok, here's my card - pretty simple.  I did a little masking and sponging and then stamped the tree on white cardstock layered over brown cardstock.  I then pop dotted a sentiment.  I had a hard time deciding which one to use, but like this one the best.  Repeat Impressions has the greatest choices of sentiments especially in the series called Quartet Compliments.
