I started by stamping the sentiment and heat embossing in white on watercolour paper. Then I stamped the trees in black pigment ink (both first and second generation) and heat embossing in clear. Lastly I took my versamarker and made the moon and the dots for stars and heat embossed them with black embossing powder.
I then flooded the whole piece with water and dropped in various shades of brown watercolour paint, keeping it dark around the sentiment and light around the moon.
It ended up quite warped so I stuck it down to self-adhesive fun foam - a great way to flatten out watercolour panels. I bordered with black cs.
I'm taking it over to Merry Monday as their current challenge is masculine Christmas cards.

Wow! This is a stunning rendition of your inspired image! I love your watercolor background, the night sky done in brown tones is just lovely and evokes tranquility.
