Night Lights on the River

I definitely challenged myself with this card!  The idea, I thought, was a great one.  Execution of what I seen in my head, not so simple LOL.  There is tons of masking, layering, and sponging in this one...my Stamp-a-ma-jig was smoking after I was all done! ;)

Supplies:

Stamp sets: Lovely as a Tree

Cardstock: Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Tempting Turquoise, Basic Gray

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Lucky Limenade, Tempting Turquoise, Rich Razzleberry, Not Quite Navy, Basic Black, Sahara Sand, Basic Gray, White craft ink

Accessories: Garden Green, Old Olive, Night of Navy, Basic Black write markers, white gel pen, Stamp-a-ma-jig, sticky strip, snail, Texturz plate #1 Flourish, 1/4" Rich Razzleberry grosgrain ribbon

If you would like to give a project like this a try here's what I did in a few quick steps:

• mask off and sponge each rock individually, shading and highlighting as you go
• mask off the rocks to work on the sky
• sponge the sky randomly with Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Lucky Limenade, Tempting Turquoise, Rich Razzelberry, Not Quite Navy, Basic Black to create the northern lights
• turn the mask over to protect the bottom portion of the rock line and sponge the water using the same colors used in the sky
• using a Stamp-a-ma-jig stamp the treeline
• using a Stamp-a-ma-jig stamp the reflective treeline in the water
• using markers in shades of green add grass along the rock line
• with a white gel pen add stars, highlights in the trees and rocks, and water ripples.

Have a great weekend everyone!
