I entered this card at our local fair under 'stamped greeting card' and won a first place red ribbon! I wanted a dramatic masculine card. First I masked the zebra from 'in the wild'.(Check out the techniques tips) Then I sponged my sky in going gray and stamped my trees. The large tree is an odd generic stamp. I sponged real red around the background trees and double-mounted them on black and red. The striped paper added boldness. I used a small glue dot to mount the ribbons behind the word 'congratulations'. On the inside liner I put red trees across the bottom edge and single black tree on the left.
