I did another card earlier today using the same colors for the brayered background. This one I decide to go with a winter scene.
Punched a 1 3/8 circle from a post it note to make a mask for the Sun.
Put Sun Mask on Whisper White Card stock. Also tore two post it notes to mask where I wanted the snow at the bottom.
Brayered the following colors on in this order, So Saffron, More Mustard, Pumpkin Pie. Took Mask off of Sun. Sponged some So Saffron and then More Mustard on the Sun to tone it down.
Sponged Really Rust and a hint of black on the top edge of snow mask. Removed post it note masks. Inked only the branch part of the Lovely as a Tree stamp with Black and stamped it. Drew in the trucks and a couple of twig trees.
Stamped Trees Three trees with Black. Smudged some SU Going Gray Pastel at the base of the large trees to create a shadow on the snow.
Used a White Gel Pen to create a little snow on the large trees.

This is one of the most beautiful cards I've seen. I will show this one to everyone I know that stamps to look here at the amazing possibilities with stamps and ink.
