My card fits this week's Mix-Ability challenge - check the Mix-Ability Challenge Forum for all the details! This week there's an inspiration project - I decided to use a gel plate so I went at it from foreground to background, stamping the trees onto the plate first in acrylic paint, brushing on stripes and splattering stars, then brayering a gradient of black, blue and white to do the pull. (Remember to let each layer dry completely before adding the next.)The paint-stamped trees didn't show up very well so I stamped a few more over the print. The red paint was a little more transparent than I hoped, but all in all, this was a fun process!

Gorgeous, Dina. I plan to play in this one after seeing your very beautiful card. I think I may do something like the card I just posted - poppies or something like that. Super cool card! Hugz
