I made the sky with my cling wrap technique I use quite often. I just wipe the ink on the cling wrap, mist with water, wad it up, unwad, and dip it onto my watercolor paper where I need it.
I made a mask for the moon with frog tape over a piece of cardstock so I could punch it out. Then, I removed it from the cardstock and placed it on the paper before making my sky.
I cut a curved piece of cardstock for the snowbanks and sponged over the edges. I love seeing that work its magic.
The next thing was to stamp my tall trees with black ink. I also stamped the tops of some leafless pines at the bottom of the hill.
The deer were cut with an Impression Obsession die cut.
Last, I used my white paint and a toothbrush to make falling snow.

What a GORGEOUS scene. Loved your mini-tutorial on your cling-wrap sky technique. Your snowbanks and shading are lovely and finished off with those wonderful tall trees and deer...yes, a GORGEOUS scene!

Beautiful card! Thank you for all the wonderful detail about how you created it. Your cling wrap technique and use of a toothbrush to create snow are ingenious. TFS, Brenda.

Is this ever gorgeous Brenda. I love your nature scenes and this one is really lovely with your sky, these fabulous tall pines with a moon peeking through, and the deer. You sure know how to add the perfect sentiment to your scenes too because this one is just fabulous. ~Karen.
