Went to bed late the other night, it was really light outside. The moon was so bright I could see the "silhouettes" of the trees against the sky. (sounds like I'm making this up for the challenges today, but no I am not.) So it was either find the camera and take a picture or just remember it and put it on a card someday. Well, today's challenges was perfect for it. So, here it is......
Some of the images I saw that night have been changed....just because I didn't have the right stamps. Oh heck, I probably had the right stamps, I just didn't want to waste time looking for them. LOL.....I also left out the neighbors house and turned the fence around because it was easier to draw this way. Oh yeah, the trees aren't really that close either.
I made some faux wood on white cs, drew my fence on it then stamped some greenery around. Cut it out and set is aside.
On another panel, I put a round circle for a moon mask, then sponged the sky. Removed the moon mask, colored the moon then stamped my trees, or should I say my neighbors trees. Added a few clouds because there were clouds that night.
Cut this to size, put it on a panel that I sponged bottle on. Then put this on a white card that I sponged black soot. Popped up the fence in front of the trees. Was just a tad plain, so I glued on the dotted ribbon.
The real scene I saw that night was simply gorgeous. Maybe I should have taken a picture!.....TFL :0)

This is just as nice as any picture you would have taken. I love the sky and you did a great job on the fence. I love to create scenes and you did a fantastic job with this one.

This is so totally fabulous Nutmeg! I well remember our stockade fence, but we sure didnt have a view like this! I love everything you've recreated here from your vision: it's perfect. Such fabulous talent you have, Nutmeg! I'm in awe with each and everyone of your cards. BTW, Chris is on her way to Spain for her holiday.
