CAS871~Peaceful Retreat

Photo Details

Poster: wannabcre8tive

The CAS challenge this week is about Daylight Savings Time. I don't know about you, but I wish it stayed the same. With it getting dark earlier, it seems like the nights are so long. At 9:00 pm it feels like midnight. I created a dark purple sky by using distress inks.

Oh, Yes, this is definitely a peaceful place to be, Shirley! I Love the way all your bright colors look against the black silhouette & framing~

You sure know how to use color. This is gorgeous with the contrast of light and dark. Great way to interpret the challenge.

Ooh, what a relaxing spot and I could handle that right now. I love your beautiful card and that sky is awesome. I hate the time change and long nights, also.

The rich purples and silhouetted framing create such a striking contrast—this scene feels both dramatic and deeply serene. Your interpretation of the challenge captures that quiet shift in mood that comes with early darkness. Beautifully balanced and emotionally resonant.
