I don’t have all of the stamps Jean used to create her card, but I was glad that I had a few Mama Elephant sets to create my scene. I’m not sure if this is a sunrise or a sunset...I suppose it depends what time of year it is, the weather, and where you would be located when the sky looks like this :-)
Also, I love the shine that comes with embossing...especially in gold, so here's a close up of the arrow and star:

very cool card Barb! and the sky is gorgeous - sunrise or sunset it's still pretty!
ReplyDelete:) this is beautiful... I love the gorgeous inking in the BG
ReplyDeleteLOVE it, beautiful blending :)
ReplyDeleteYou nailed it, Barb - I love your sky!! And your masking is phenomenal!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely, Barb! I think you did a wonderful job of creating this scene, be it sunrise or sunset. The gold embossing is so pretty here, too.
ReplyDeleteQuestion - did you stamp the skyline before or after? Now I'm realizing that I should have stamped my skyline after! I started out thinking I would mask it, which is why I stamped it first, (but the masking was a complete fail!). The results would have been crisper if I'd stamped after. Live and learn!
ReplyDeleteBarb your sky is GORGEOUS, such beautiful inking. This is a beautiful take on Jean's card. So well executed.
ReplyDeleteBarb this is so gorgeous, I LOVE that background and the gold makes it even better!
