IC530 Come to Me

Photo Details

Poster: beesmom

I have virtually no Asian type stamps, but noticed lots of ethereal looking scenic images on our inspiration site (IC530), and in particular this one with lots of greens - and thought I would make a monochromatic card: http://www.comuseum.com/wp-content/u...ite-clouds.jpg
Lots of masking, brayering and then sponging, then stamped the silhouettes and sentiment, matted the image with white and some TH cs to match the inks.

SO pretty! You are an expert sponger (if that's the correct term)..the layers here are amazing! The plant silhouettes are perfect and go very well with the verse.

How pretty this is. You don't need any Asian images, silly woman, to craft an Asian delight like this. Beautiful coloring and a more than perfect sentiment. See, you can create Asian... you just didn't know that until now.
