I was inspired by this image from our inspiration site today: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/136515432424757652/ I liked the color combination and the fact that these colors are often seen in layers like this in nature - but in a less graphic version of color blocking. First I masked for the moon, sky, and the sea and sponged, then I sponged for the sand and the grass. Completed the scene by stamping the weeds and ducks, the birds, and I added whitecaps to the sea with a hard bristle brush dabbed in white pigment ink. For the reflection of the moon, I spread the white pigment ink a bit with my finger. The ducks where an outline stamp, but I wanted a stronger silhouette. So I filled in the stamped outlines with black marker to create the silhouette, and with that same black marker I drew in a shoreline in the left corner.

Another adfdition to my pinterest "scenes" board. This is lovely, and the way you created your own silhouette stamp was genius. Wonderful colors and the hand drawn shore line looks fantastic. Faved.
This is such a gorgeous card. I love your night sky, moon and wonderful water and the silhouette of the images in black are so intriguing. I love this card.
