The challenge is to use only black ink with our stamps. Color can be added with ink and tools other than stamps, my tool was a sponge. The trees were stamped with black ink. I couldnÂ’t use a resist ink so I punched a round shape on a sticky portion of post it and placed it on the card to sponge on the night sky. Remove the sponge and add just a touch of sponged color to tone down the moon. The three stars on designer paper are a pencil eraser I made into a stamp. The very tiny stars and lines were added with a gel pen.
I got my inspiration for the image panel from a Web Shots screen saver on my computer. IÂ’ve had this plan in my head for a year but had to collect the right stamps for it. What a great challenge; it may be come up with a new method for a moon.
It was less than 45 minutes to create.

Fabulous! I love your image panel. It is great. The background is really nice. It adds to the image panel without taking away from it. Very nicely done....
