Morning.
Long weekends, summer skies...ahhh, I can already feel the sunny warmth.
Today, I was inspired with the challenge at Splitcoast from the Wall Plates online Store.
I am playing with some fun, new releases from Penny Black.
I began by getting out my MISTI. I find myself using it all the time now and it makes adding layers of colour so easy to do. So, I placed my tree stamp called Shade Canopy inside my MISTI, coloured it using Memento markers, sprayed with water then stamped. I then repeated that process adding darker shades of green to my tree until I was happy with the look.
When that was dry, I stamped the sentiment from the new Penny Black set called Treasured Collection with Memento black ink. I sponged the sky using Tumbled Glass Distress ink keeping the ink around the tree to give it a bit of a glow.
Adding my card to these challenges:
Brown Sugar- ANYTHING GOES
Crafting With Friends- ANYTHING GOES
Aud Sentiments- ANYTHING GOES + SENTIMENT
Thanks so very much for coming by and taking a look.
Enjoy your weekend.
Supplies: stamps- Penny Black/ ink- Memento, Distress/ sponge applicator/ Memento markers/ MISTI

Beautifully done, Karen, and such rich, vibrant green hues! Lovely bright "halo" around the tree, making the sky seems perfectly blue with a touch of clouds hiding behind the tree! Lovely card, Karen! hugs, de
That tree is absolutely amazing Karen.
