IC299 Sunset Tree-Inspired_lb

Photo Details

Poster: Clownmom

Today's Inspiration Challenge site is UrbanRose and its Etsy store -- which is all about hand-made jewelry. I found an altered photo locket, which I really like, to use as my inspiration. I lightly sponged TH Distressed Black Soot on my cardstock to give it that antique look and sponged the sunset with three different TH Distressed ink.
