TMTA - Trees

The theme for Think Monday Think ATCs is trees. I made this background last night using some Bombay india inks that I sprayed with water. This didn't work very well since I now know that india inks are pigment inks. Still I like the result I got when I laid the cardstock flat into the soupy inks. The trees are stamped in Distress Inks of China Blue, Frayed Burlap, and Peeled Paint.

    I think they are very pretty and it reminds me of the Smokey Mountains.

    What a creative take on this theme Faye. I DO love the 'cloudy' background and hope you improve that I try this once in photoshop ?
    I would gladly use your piece as a sample for the colours if I may.
