This is a card I made with our stamping group (The Stampin' Beauties) at last weekend's Stampin' and Scrappin' event. It's a case of a combination of Michelle Zindorf's "Big Moon Buck" and "Matter of Moments" tutorials.
Brayered the sky in Tempting Turquoise and then Not Quite Navy with a mask for the moon. Removed the mask and lightly sponged some Not Quite Navy on the moon. Stamped the buck, tree (thanks Hilda for the loan) and geese in Basic black. Sponged Early Espresso, Basic Grey and Basic Black for the ground. Drew lines for the rocks with black marker. Highlighted with white gel pen. Matted on Early Espresso, Pacific Point and the card base of Kraft paper.

Love the scene you've created around that stately buck! Your highlighting with the gel pen is fantastic... and your fibers and wooden leaf are the perfect embellishment!
