I love camping and hiking in the woods! It is not uncommon to be out walking in the early morning and see the mist hover above a stream or lake as the sun rises between the trees.
I stamped the background trees, rocks, water (051G) image then added a bit of rippling water with the 305C stamp. Next I added lots of swamp grass and of course the birds in flight. The wonderful sentiment is from Our Daily Bread.
I colored the scene with PanPastels and then added White Brilliance ink on a cotton swab tip to form the mist.

Really beautiful card Nancy, thank you for sharing with us at All Dressed Up, but I am afraid that in order to enter you need to use one of our images so I have had to remove your entry x
