This is my card for the IC488 challenge "Shafts of Light." Stacy asked us to choose an inspiration photo from an amazing Pinterest site. I found inspiration everywhere, but finally chose this beautiful photo.
I knew I couldn't do justice to the picture using traditional stamp and ink techniques, but I've been playing around in Photoshop a lot recently, and thought I would give it a go.
I opened a blank canvas in PS and used several different brush tools, each on it's own layer, to create my scene. I am continually amazed at how can manipulate each layer to achieve the effect you desire. When I finally decided I had what I was looking for, I added the sentiment and printed the scene onto photo paper.
I used stitched rectangle die to cut the image and the mat , and adhered the layers directly to the card base using Sookwang tape.
As always, thanks for looking!
