I stamped the image on my cs, then inked it up again and ran my brayer over the image. I then positioned the brayer so it would mirror the image. I used watercolor pencils and a little glitter in the trees. Fun!

I am just amazed! I have trouble using my brayer just to fill in a blank paper . . . I can't even imagine trying to get an image as spectacular as this off a brayer! My wastebasket would be overflowing by the time I was done! Great Job!

I love this card! What technique did you use for the clouds? I love the effect you achieved w/the brayer also. Gotta case this one for sure. Just got this set of stamps and I love them!

Pinky, I used the cloud stamp from the retired scenery set, inked in Memories Soft Stone. This is a very pale blue that almost gives the appearance of being "puffed" up..not quite embossed, but a different look to it. I then just scribbled here and there with the watercolor pencils, used a waterbrush and blended.
I was lucky with the brayer getting it lined up the first time! lol..
