Stampscapes - Forest Falls
This scene, measuring 8.5"x11", is much bigger than my card sized scenes. For this scene I followed a tutorial by Kevin Nakagawa on the Stampscapes website. I didn't have all of the same stamps that he used so I had to use what I had for my version of his scene. To make all the elements of the composition I had to use a lot of masking to get images to look like they were behind other images.
It was fun to try such a big project. My friend Linda and I each did this scene at her house one day last spring. I had most of it stamped and inked with colour, but got it back out recently to finish it to display at an art show in which I participated.
Did you get creative lately? It's good to stretch your abilities with something out of your comfort range now and again.
I'd love to hear from you. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
Saw this on SCS and clocked over to your blog. This is so very beautiful!! Thank you so much for sharing it!!~
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! I'd love to learn to make the look of fog. I giggled when you mentioned stepping out of the comfort zone, if that's your comfort zone, all I can say is "wow!" (nics_117 on scs)
