Birch trees

Photo Details

Poster: Heather T

I partially inked the stamp with a distress marker then added sky colour with a paintbrush and distress stains. I went over the outlines of the trees with a black marker adding markings and twigs.

What a lovely water coloured card. The birch trees are just so well done. A beautiful late afternoon sunset.

Heather, any card you do is a masterpiece! I have this stamp and have been puzzled by what to do with it. This is gorgeous! I love how you used the birch trees only and that glorious pink sky!
