A card for DEC15VSNA challenge. The country is Africa and our inspiration photo was one of Victoria Falls. The lower half of the panel was dry embossed, and the top half was brayered. I then ran a post it note along the top of the embossed part and stamped foliage from some tiny stamps that I have had forever. In doing so, I managed to get ink on the edge of the acrylic block and I had not blocked off the sky. Consequently, I have a lot of birds in the sky. I had that planned all along.........that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

This is beautiful. I love the striped embossing. It looks like a waterfall. The top part is lovely and the birds are an ingenious addition. Love the foliage in the middle and the wonderful verse. Great card. You rocked this challenge! TFS

Beautiful, Ina. I notice a lot of people went with embossing, it is certainly an effective way to pick up on the falling water. I like your use of ribbon on this, too.
