This week's challenge from the Saturday Spotlight blog was to Make a Scene.
I pulled out one of my favorite sets, Of a Feather by Memory Box and got to work.
I stamped the various trees onto a piece of white cardstock. Then I ripped some green scrap designer paper and added it as hills. I re-stamped the trunks over top of the hills. Then I added the sun and birds. I colored in the trees and red birds with Copic markers. The sky is colored with my chalks - haven't pulled them out for a long time. Might have to challenge myself to that next week!!
I stamped the sentiment (Beyond Basic Borders by Papertrey Ink) and colored it with the same chalk but it looked so lonely and boring. So, I added one of the red birds to the letter 'o' and I boxed it in. Of course I had to go back and add a box around the main image!!!
Off to see all the other 'scenes' that were created for this challenge.
Thanks for dropping in!
