This is for TLC303 to use some type of sponging technique. I decided it was high time that I stop making Christmas but couldn't quite pull myself away from using evergreens. I wanted to create a forest of trees in front of a body of water with the moonlight/sunlight shining over the water. I can't quite decide if it looks like night or not but I like the effect. I sponged in the ground, water and sky areas using an Inkssentials Ink Blending tool and a Color Box Stylus and Foam Tips. If you enjoy sponging, especially on hot pressed watercolor paper then you cannot beat either of these products. I don't paid a cent or any free product for saying this but just love the way both of these products work. I would be lost without them. Anyway, I stamped the trees and stiplled over them with a dry brush. I thought the scen would look good framed.

This is so much more inviting than all the snow I'm looking at that's blowing all around here. this is just BEAUTIFUL Kittie. It should be hanging on a wall somewhere. I'm going to check out those tools.
