CAS197 Purple Snow

Photo Details

Poster: CAKath

Today's CAS challenge is a color challenge. I immediately thought of some of the snowy cards I've seen. I used reverse masking to create a wide strip for the image. Torn paper served as a mask to create the snow banks. I could use a little more practice, but do like the look of this.

Thanks for viewing and commenting.

So pretty! I like your use of a non-traditional image and colors on this Christmas card.

This is so beautiful. You have been very busy today, all your cards are great. I have been away for a while and at last life is back to normal (meaning lots of Splitcoast time), this is the first time I have seen your new profile photo...very lovely. I feel like I know you!!! TFS

Your sponging turned out so nice. These colors certainly work well for pretty scenes like this.
