The second challenge of the Fall CAS DT Search is to use 3 of our favorite things on our cards.
I love brayering and, personally, find it faster and easier than sponging. Many times with a brayered image comes my second favorite....a white gel pen for highlights. Thirdly, I love to use silhouetted images with a brayered sky to keep it simple. This image happens to be by Technique Tuesday whose floral images I adore.

Sallie, this is so pretty. I love the brayered sky (I have yet to get the correct brayer tool). The colors you used looks like a beautiful sunset. Again, so pretty.

Your favorite things just became one of mine! Love the look of the images partly layered over your brayered piece Sallie and the gel pen highlights look great.

Well, Sallie....I didn't know you brayed....I assumed you sponged!! Your backgrounds are always outstanding. My brayer is NOT my freind.....but I think I'll get it out again. Your card is lovely!
