Sunset

I was inspired by Sue Butler's splendid sunset over on Country View Crafts challenge blog and it said, if you have no stamps and dies to create a scene, then try to do one yourself....and I thought....I never thought of that!
So, I found a photo that I took from my living room window in February and had a go replicating it!

I washed my journal page with water and very freely added some washes of Paperartsy frescos in Tango, Rose, Zesty Zing and Sky!


I didn't faff around like I usually do, just went for it!
Next I used a Stabilo black Aquarelle pencil and just drew and scribbled the trees. Then framed it with loose lines. Surprised myself a bit!
Am entering this into the Country View Challenge.

    Wow, Hazel! I so love those tree silhouettes! This is gorgeous! You're on fire - rather like the sunset, except you're more of a sunrise! xx

    Magnificent, Hazel. Your sunset sky is lovely, and the tree silhouettes are absolutely stunning... I'd buy that as a stamp in a heartbeat!
