Hello there and welcome to my new follower......Jeanette Kirby. Thank you for joining me :)
It's time for a new challenge over at Fashionable Stamping Challenges and it was my turn this time to choose a theme. As we are well into Autumn now, I thought that 'Trees' would be an appropriate choice. Here's the card I've made for the challenge:
I started by creating my background using Ink Dusters, starting with the lightest colours first and then gradually moving on to the darker colours. I used a Mountain Valley stencil to bring in the mountains and then I used a circular mask to make the sun. I masked off the sky and spritz my Ink Dusters with water before dragging them across the card to give the water some movement.
I stamped the trees twice to make a long line before adding the Twiggy Branch and the birds to finish off the sky. I chose the Memories sentiment to use on this card as it uses the word 'Reflection' and I think that it works perfectly with the tree stamp. I used the Bulrush stamp and grassed in the foreground and then finished by dusting around the edge with Memento Paris Dusk that that the eye would be drawn into the scene
Inks Used:
- Memento: Dandelion, Paris Dusk, Tuxedo Black,
- Adirondack: Peach Melba, Mountain Rose, Purple Twilight, Water Melon
- Versafine: Black Onyx
- Distress: Carved Pumpkin
Thank you for visiting. Happy crafting :) x
