I wanted to use my Inspired by nature set, but I wanted to make it interesting. So I got out my sponges, and sponged the earth and sky.
I started in the middle of the card with river rock, from the middle I went down, then I added my next layer, kiwi kiss, I started down about 1/4 inch from the top of the r.r., then I added old olive, did the same 1/4 inch down from k.k., then I added wild wasabi, about 1/4 inch down from o.o. From there, I turned the card upside down.
I started with soft sky, went from the middle to the bottom, from there 1/4" down, cool carribean, then 1/4" down, brocade blue, then 1/4" down, night of navy.
I wanted my image to look in the distance, so I took basic grey, and stamped off the grasses.
Then I took basic black, and stamped off the cone flowers.
For the layers behind the main panel, I chose earthtones, close to cocoa, and choc chip. Image mounted on brocade blue, and night of navy.
