So decided to try this challenge after I saw this calendar page..... http://www.lang.com/product/1001215
My DW bought me a set of stamps from Stampscapes so here we go.. this card was compiled from 6 different stamps colored the trees with pens, sponged the sky and lake,chalked the mountains and rocks. The clouds are also sponged using torn paper towels... a tech found on the stampscape site! TFL

Wow, BF, just when I think it can't get any better it does, yes, your artwork. Love the mountains and the way you did the water where it connects to the land. Super job. I have to come back for some lessons.
Is this week too soon?

Oh Bubba! I know you heard this in person- but I LOVE THIS CARD! I am going to frame it for the livingroom! Your art is becoming more special with each card. It is a joy to share the stamp room with you, altho I do fear that soon, you will be sharing it with me! Love you!
P.S. And I am not touching those Stamp Scapes! They scare me!

I agree with the others that this is absolutely the best! I thought that The Glorious Morning card was the best, but this is incredible! I was there when Pat bought those Stampscapes and now I am really intrigued. Totally awesome!

Well your VERY careful stampin and inkin is superb. What a great set of stamps. You better put your initials on your stamps. I think others like to borrow. Love this serene image you created. Again wishing I was at a cabin lookin out over the lake at this beauty..

Well King of Stamping... this is amazing. I love how you are been inspired by Him. This sure looks like His Grand Teton Mountains. How beautifully done that water looks so clear and cold!
