A Guid New Year tae ane an awe
And mony may we see!
( A wee bit of Scotland coming out here)
We are off and running over at STAMPlorations
for our CUTplorations Inspiration Photo Challenge.
What did you pick up on when you looked at this
really Beautiful Scene?
I will admit I had a meltdown knowing I didn't
have a STAMPloration tree as that is what I
wanted as my focal image so improvised
by cutting one - but before that
I wanted to try and match the beautiful sky background
using Oxide Inks, Inka Gold and a White Gel Pen.

Turned out nicely then added some 'trees'
which really are leaves from
STAMPlorations Trendy Spring Blooms
for the background then my cut tree
I used as a stencil and inked.

ReplyDeleteI like that enchanting word die-

So unique and what a glorious background you've made Ina on your fabulous card. Clever idea to make the tree and to use the stamp as trees too x Appreciate the Scottish sentiment. On the mend now but still not there yet x Happy New Year x

Very clever of stretching your stamp set.
