I learned this technique some weeks ago from a Canadian Crafter's blog.
The card blank is masked and the colour added to the central section. I used Peeled Paint and Dusty Concord Distress inks plus Bashful Blue Stampin' Up ink applied with sponges.
The trees in the distance were then stamped with SU Mellow Moss and the nearer ones with second impression of Stazon Olive green. I then removed the masking paper and stamped the trees in the foreground using Olive Green Stazon directly after inking.
The sentiment is from Hero Arts.
I am getting braver with one layer cards... I used my Lego stamp positioner to ensure the sentiment was stamped straight... although one tree looks as though it's been in a bit of a gale!

Hi Chrissie thanks for visiting my blog. Bubbles is too addictive! Your blog width doesn't look wide enough to make it fit so you need to go into the template and fiddle with the setting to make your column wider and it has to go in the footer in a large gadget to fit. Hope this helps
