The current challenge over at The House that Stamps Built
is their Inspiration Challenge.
I thought long and hard with how I could make my card.
It certainly was challenging and after seeing the
current sketch over at Try Stampin' on Tuesday
I thought I could incorporate the 2 together.

Sketch
I know I didn't get the twine
the correct way but after I had created my
scene it just didn't look right. But I am happy
how it highlight it. I decided that since I am
entering this in another challenge I couldn't use
the option of snowflakes.
Thanks Kaylin for a great sketch challenge.

Oh boy do I see some Theresa Momber sponging. I love the dark clouds above the sunset and how the water reflects the tree image and sky colors. Perfect shading on the moon and the birds make a nice finishing touch. This is CAS at it's very best. Great take on both challenges.
Wow!! You've really outdone yourself this week Ina. This is magnificent. Love, love, love it. Great coloring on the sentiment too. As always, love to see your cards in the House That Stamps Built Challenge. Good Luck.
I saw this on the House that Stamps Built challenge, and just had to stop by to tell you what a lovely card you created - that image is wonderful!
Fabulous card! --I might be a bit partial as it is very similar to the one I made for the challenge. : )--Very pretty scene you created and I love the sponging on the sentiment oval; such a pretty touch. Thanks for playing with The House That Stamps Built.
Wow, just awesome. I love the metallic-infused twine framing your magic stamp-art. Beautiful!
Lovely card, thanks for joining us at Try Stampin'. I may have to do one like it. Your water coloring is beautiful. Vicki DT
I am just catching up with things, SS....I was (as you say) Gobsmacked by this card! My jaw hit the floor and it's not returned to my face....gorgeous....simply gorgeous!
Oh what a creative idea to capture such a beautiful image in that small space. Very nice. Thanks for joining us at Try Stampin' on Tuesday. Crystal
