Am practicing using different Distress Ink colours together and this was one of those combos.
Fired Brick, Festive Berries, Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade.
I also opted to use an Ink Duster this time instead of my sponging.
The landscape die is 'never before used'!
The finished article looks vaguely familiar so it may well be that I have seen one similar somewhere!
The panel was mounted onto white linen card for a bit of texture. Made a bit of a mess of stamping the sentiment but wanted to finish SOMETHING, so not a lot I could do about it!
Keep thinking I will invest in a Misti..... maybe Father Christmas will bring one.
Off to the Playground as both the inked panel and the card used for the die were left overs. (3 weeks in a row - definitely something of a record for me at the moment!).

Wow Viv.....mojo did come back with mine after all!! :) This my friend is superb...love it. Your inking is great..was it better with the duster than a pad? I can't see anything wrong with the sentiment. A fabulous card and I am sure it will be well received. I always feel very pressured and short on ideas when I HAVE to make card for a specific...pretty much all the time really!This is brilliant!!

Absolutely stunning scene Viv - love the sunrise or sunset look you achieved behind the wonderful outline.
Great to see you in the Playground yet again - is there something hidden behind the bike shed that I should know about?

Lovely snippet card, I like the effect you have got with your inks and dusters - a fabulous night sky , the perfect backdrop for the die cut buildings. Elizabeth xx
LOVE the colours of your beautiful sunset Viv. That is such a cool cityscape die ... just perfect together. The sentiment looks good to me. :) xx
This is a beautiful citiscape Viv, with the lovely night sky behind. I must say I am thinking about getting a Misti too as it makes it much easier to get a perfect result every time, but that saying this looks great to me. x
Gorgeous sunset, Viv. Beautiful layout, perfectly masculine and nicely CAS too. Thanks for playing along at AAA Cards.
