I decided to try masking a small area and use a stencil and some sponging. Tried it twice as the first one the stencil moved. Used a Tim Holtz ray stencil in Distress Oxide Wild Honey and then used other inks over the whole thing to get a sky and a sunny glow. The little silhouettes came from a GKD set called Framescape simply spring. I stamped them along the edge. Added the sentiment from a very old rubber stamp set. I also embossed a line top and bottom. This has some shimmer as I went over it with some perfect pearl powder but the photo doesn’t pick it up. I shall have to do more practice with this idea as I don’t think I did a brilliant job. I have another idea so may try again next week.

The masking is so impressive to focus this scene. Your colors really are the show stoppers with this one.

This is really pretty Johanna! Your scene stands out beautifully, whether your colors are as vibrant as you would like, or not. Great job on edging it with a touch of sparkle, too. I love that you did shading, even on such a small scene, as well. It really grounds the dog and the tree.

The background you created with the stencil is gorgeous and the silhouettes just “pop”. Great job! Thanks for joining us at Perfectly CAS.
