For the Week 28 challenge over at "Less is More" the theme is 'One layer' using inks and the folk over at "Scrapology" (Aug Card challenge) want to see a landscape using brayering - they also want to see a sun.
So using some Post-its to create a frame and the sun I made this card.
I couldn't find my circle punch so I cut around a 2p to mask the area where the sun was to be. Then using a 'Mountain Rose' Adirondack ink pad I brayered my card - gradually building up the colour. The mask for the sun was removed and a further layer was run across with the brayer to create a hazy look.
The stamps are some that I borrowed from a friend and I have no idea what make they are - I just liked the effect they created when I stamped over the background with black Stazon ink.
The Post-it note frame mask was removed and a piece of black ribbon attached just to finish things off. Hope you like it........................

Wow Toni, this is lovely!!! Your scene is gorgeous! Way to go getting into two challenges again, I struggle sometimes finding one to play along with. I'm joining the LOTV this week - thanks for the heads up. I want you to grab "The I Blame You Button" because you have cost me a fortune and that's a good thing! LOL Please spread the button to others that have cost you to increase your craft tools.
