Rowboat Scene


I have another Stampscapes card for you today.  When I saw that the Craft a Scene challenge for August was The Great Outdoors I knew that I needed to put my Stampscapes images to work.  I created the peaceful, dusk / nighttime scene using various stamps (listed below).  The sentiment is from PTI's Pretty Peonies.

I stamped everything except the sky in black and sponged most of the colors onto the card stock.  The rocks are colored with pencils.  The milky way sky is stamped in blue and sponged with some purple and yellow.  I highlighted the oak branches with a white gel pen.

Hopefully, I'll get a chance to create another outdoor scene for this challenge.


Blessings,



 

Stamps:  Stampscapes -- Lakeside Cove Lg 049G, Oak Branch 203G, Water Ripple Light 305C, Rowboat 166A, Reeds Lg 068D, Milky Way 058E, Rocks in Water, PTI -- Pretty Peonies
Paper:   Kraft, Black, White
Ink:  Summer Sky (memento), Almost Amethyst (SU), Pink, yellow
Other:  quikcutz label, twine, white gel pen, colored pencils
