Twofer Trees

I've been making lots of cards with trees of late and these two are for the Twofer Card Challenge.







I stamped the image on Acrylic Card-stock. I masked off the moon and when dry, painted the background with a mix of Distress Oxide Inks. The mask was removed and a light highlight painted around the edge of the moon. 
Stamp: Penny Black Peaceful Moment
Die: SSS 

This time I stamped the image with Zig Markers on to Bristol Paper.  I used a very old stamp
to add the foliage and sponged in the sky and grass. 
Stamp: Penny Black Peaceful Moment; Fern Gully Stamps Leaves
Die: SSS
Here is a bonus card...

This is a one layer card. I stamped the main image and the Christmas tree, then sponged the mountains, winter sky and splattered 'snow' with white Gouache.  The sentiment is an old wood mount stamp.
Stamps:Penny Black Peaceful Moment, Prancers


I'm sharing at the following challenges:-

RETRO RUBBER CHALLENGE
Anything Goes
(2017)

The next card is inspired by Less is More theme...


I stamped the Thistles with Zig Markers and added some highlights on the page. 
Stamps: Lavinia Stamps Thistles; SSS Sketched Flowers
Die: Papertrey Ink
