Hello from Outback Australia

We have our youngest son and his family travelling the outback at the moment and I have been wanting to make a card with an Outback theme. The new tree stencil was crying out to be used. So on Water colour paper I used Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, and Pumpkin Pie to create the vibrant sunset using just sponge daubers. You could get different effects depending on your colouring tools. I also used memento black to do the silhouette ground. For the trees I mixed memento ink droplets into white embossing paste to create the black trees. The simple hello sentiment is actually placed to cover an ink spot and it is from the Forever Fern Stamp set and have heat embossed in gold. We all make mistakes right! Mounted on a gold mat and placed on a black card - I was quite happy with this first attempt. But plan on having another go at it. Hope you like today's card
