This lake scene is from
Public Domain Vectors. I laser printed it, trimmed it to size and then watercoloured it. Fun to try something new - reflection of the sky on the water in yellow, oranges and reds. I wanted a textured background for this beautiful scene so I found some gray paper and then stamped it in a light gray ink with this harlequin stamp (SU) but because this stamp is hard to clean I got a very grayed brown image. It worked so I just kept going. I stamped "worn" (SU) over the top in black and that was even better. I collaged two strip of gray to a black one and embossed that with a diamond embossing folder. Added three pewter eyelets and tied in a piece of black ribbon. I adhered this background to a dark gray card and then mounted by lake scene over the strip using 3D foam tape. Very happy with how this one worked out. Theres
