Life is a matter of moments - CAS155

Photo Details

Poster: Loll Thompson

For this week's CAS challenge (CAS155 - photo inspiration: Summer Gold)

I used the brayering technique for today's card, masking off the bottom and top of the card front and then adding Wild Wasabi and Baja Breeze inks. I sponged So Saffron lightly between the brayering and added the trees in Early Espresso ink.

Simply beautiful, Loll! Not only is your brayering fabulous, but also the shading you did under the trees. Beautiful, beautiful work, my friend!
