Bonsai Tree Coral Thoughtful Card

I received a swap card that was a very nice focal but the base it was put on did not work well, so I took off the focal element and had this green and yellow gate fold base floating around in my stash since, oh last July. I bought the stamp set All The Good Things during the one day 30th birthday sale because I liked the color management that the DistINKtive style of production creates.

This set has koi fish and a bonsai tree. I decided to stamp up a focal of that tree in Shaded Spruce, Early Espresso and Calypso Coral. I then added a top Calypso Coral layer to the front and thought I had something. However the Calypso Coral seemed a bit strong to me so to break it up I used the dashed lines from Birthday Backgrounds vertically in Early Espresso. Voila... it worked!

I am still on the fence whether to add any embellishment or not so for now I will publish it as is.
