Blue Knight Pine Tree Trio Night Sky

On Thursday of this week, I made a card for the Ways to Use It Challenge at Splitcoast Stampers.  The challenge was to make a card with a night sky.  I had noticed a day or so earlier that some of the Water Colorists on Splitcoast had made cards where it look like one was looking up in the sky from the middle of a forest gazing at the tall trees and sun.  It really looked neat so I decided to make one for the night sky challenge.  I started by choosing my paper and then made a circle stencil to make the moon.  I used a gold spray to on the circle.  There was something that went awry and my paint made a few splotches that was not on the sun.  I ditched the paper and made another card with a day sky with the trees.  On Friday, I decided to pick up the ditched paper with the Trees and use it anyway.  I am glad I did because now I think that mistake added to the look of the sky.   Below you will find both cards I made using the trees.

The night sky is my favorite because I like bright colors. 

If you have not been to Splitcoast Stampers, I highly suggest you do.  It is a lot of fun and they have a new challenge or two everyday.  I learned to stamp at Splitcoast.  It is a great way to learn new things, they have tutorials that are very helpful.  I made a lot of new friends there over 20 years ago and many of us still keep in contact and still stamp together there.  Some of the friends I made there have come to my home to visit and I have gone to some of theirs.  

Thank you, for taking a look at my cards.
