Outpost Anniversary

This week's SplitCoast Stampers Inspiration Challenge comes from the Galleria Arts & Crafts, the largest independently owned retail arts and crafts store in Canada.  Their 9000 plus square feet of space is teeming with handmade Canadian crafts.  I chose this photo of a Summer Storm from Brian R. Ewing to inspire my design.

It reminded me of this image from The Outpost set from Artistic Outpost.  I inked the top of the image in blue and the ground with green ink.

Next, I painted on Frost (blue) and Forest Green Glimmer mist with a paintbrush, keeping my brush strokes horizontal to give the effect of a cloudy sky.

I finished with a wrap of blue seam binding and a vintage Hero Arts sentiment for my rustic anniversary card.
