When my creativity slumps I love going through Heather's tutorials. I masked the card, stamped in Versamark first, then again a bit off in Versafine. Heat embossed. Sponged the background in Memento gray flannel, Distress iced spruce, stormy sky. Paint and I just don't get along but I brought out some very old acrylics and with a toothpick dotted the berries. Thanks for stopping by.
Edit: I neglected to include Heather's link Snow Storm

Can't say enough good things about this. So beautiful. The sky is amazing, the berries leap off the paper, and the composition is great, too. Thanks for showing us this one!

Oh my! My mouth is gaping open! This is so beautiful it is bringing tears to my eyes. Really! Thank you so much for the technique details. Into my favourites; not that I think I could ever emulate this but I will enjoy gazing at it. :-)

This is so lovely! Straight into my favourites as I will definitely be CASEing it! Love the brightness of the berries against the grey sky and also the way the diecut branch echoes the stamped branches.
