This is an anniversary card for my sister and BIL. I used Michelle Zindorf's brayering technique. The couple and grass are stamped by first applying VersaMark to the stamp then SU Basic Black, then clear heat embossing the stamped image. The moonlight reflection was stamped in Versamark then clear heat embossed. The sky and water are brayered using Tempting Turquoise, Taken With Teal and Not Quite Navy ink in that order. The moon was made by brayering over a 2 7/8" circle mask cut using Nestabilities standard circles on a Post It Note, then lightly sponging Not Quite Navy on the moon. Sponged Not Quite Navy along the horizon using the same Post It Note used for brayering the sky and water with a horizon. Sponged Black at the bottom of the grass and the left side of the card for shadowing.
Thanks for looking.
