This was not a "lickety split and it's done card". It definitely took some time to put the images in my mind onto paper using stamps. I created the mountains using the square at an angle from the B&C Monogram set. I masked off the areas underneath with post-it notes and created my mountains. I used Tim Holtz distress ink in vintage photo. (I got this from my new friend Amy who is newly pregnant - hip hip hooray! and I LOVE it!) I then watercolored them in the same color. The sun was made with the double edge circle from that same set, stamped in pumpkin pie. I water colored the image with summer sun and pumpkin pie and my aquapainter. I then added lavender lace, bashful blue and pretty in pink to the sky to make it look like the sun was rising. I embossed the cross from Everyday Blessings in gold on black paper and cut it out. Then I embossed the saying in gold. The card is made out of a black base and then I cut an additional piece for the saying to lay over the top. I tore the edge of the paper because it looked too straight. I hope you like it.
Happy stamping!
