For Libby's paint challenge, I was inspired by a walk past one of our local farms, now sold for development. :( There was a huge pasture with a single tree in it, and that's what I got me started with this card
I used two of Claudine Hellmuth's paints, mixed each with a little water, then used a piece of Cut-N-Dry foam to schmear them over a piece of water color paper. Once dry, I went back and stamped the tree and added the fence. I trimmed off the top points of the punched fence to look more farm-like. I added a few birds with a black Memento marker (got to have birds!)

Love the green & blue and that one lone tree. Beautiful!! Your little white fence is super cute, too.

Oooo, what a pretty scene! There is a farm nearby us that has one singular tree in the middle of their field, and I just love looking at it. Your card reminds me of it.
