FS312, All is Calm

Photo Details

Poster: k dunbrook

hi there,
Here is my card for the FS today. Big congrats to Bonnie aka Bon2stamp and her wonderful gallery. So many cards I could case there but I chose this one:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...;ppuser=186560
I changed the orientation of my card, changed the image to a scene and used a different eb folder for the bkg.
Hope you like it and thanks so much for looking.

edited to add....I coloured the bkg with Distress inks...by using a waterbrush, you can remove the snow on the branches to make it look more realistic.
Hope that helps for anyone who want to try it out!

WOW!!! What a dramatic, beautiful card, Karen - the way you've done the forest scene is almost photographic quality - another CAS stunner!!! (I love that bg embossing, it's one of my favorites!)

amazing......I would love to know how you got the sky so vibrant and yet the branches seem to have a light layer of snow......it is truly amazing
