How peaceful the world looks at the old barn...surely not a sound to be heard. Only the moon glistening over the snow. How wonderful if the world had such peace.
Challenges:
F4A300-Looking back to the beginning. I did challenge F4A1-colors, textures and optional patterns. My texture is in the corrugated board I've used and distressed. I also have some snow in the trees. We should use at least one color we don't normally use. I rarely use Victorian Velvet, Paris Dusk, or Purple Hydrangea.
CT1115-Long Winter's Nap-explore things like bare branches, hibernating creatures, naps. Of course, you can see I have bare branches.
I stamped my image, then sponged my snow using a die from Taylored Expressions called Rolling Hills. I just twist it around to the desired position. The barn was colored with Copics. After masking the moon with a circle punched piece of paper, I sponged the sky. The mask was removed to reveal that big moon and I sponged it.
A Snow Writer was used to place snow in trees.
I think this could be a masculine card....or not.

Woweeee Benzi! What a beautiful scene and fabulous colouring! Street lighting is definitely a down side that we just don't get to see amazing skies like yours!

We both were drawn to peace this week! Love your scene, Benzi. The colors are really awesome, and that barn is just so perfect. I have always wanted a barn - the closest I have gotten is the pole barn we framed in for our rental house/garage. Such a lovely card, my friend. Into my faves, of course. Hugz
