Congratulations Pat (contrapat), for being this week's featured stamper! I did my best to pay tribute to your wonderful gallery
This card was inspired by Northern Lights by contrapat at Splitcoaststampers
I had my heart set on creating a scene with the Northern Lights. However, after 12 failed attempts, I decided to change the Northern Lights to a full moon. But even trying to capture the lighting from a full moon was equally challenging. After many more attempts, this is the best outcome that I could achieve.
The sentiment on the card adds a focal point, making the imagery the background instead of the main subject of the card.
Thank you for taking the time to view my work, and congratulations on your special SCS week, Pat!

Brian, Although you feel you had failed attempts I love the outcome of this gorgeous card. The darker colors around the moon are beautiful and definitely highlight the quote. This is stunning!

Your full moon is lovely against the darker background. Well done....it does take practice to get light effects right and you did it here! I really like the Frost quote with this...it works well.

Very, very well done, Brian. It came out wonderfully and I love the words too.
It is remarkable how many attempts you had and you stuck with it - a true artist. I am guessing that we would have loved the 12+ attempts - hope you saved them!
What a cool image too. Love this. hugz
