Hahaha...I hadn't ...Thank you so much, Karen!! Hahaha...I hadn't thought abt the tail looking like talons hanging onto the stump.....but I totally see what you mean!!! If you've seen owls perched on stumps and such, that really is sort of what the talons look like. Ha. This is what I mean abt you seeing things in my cards that I don't even notice.....talons and alternate universes!! :D<br /><br />Thanks for asking abt my background! I usu lay down my darkest colors of EP first.....as I did here. I VM all over the piece with no brayer, sprinkle the powder, and then zap it. Let cool...and repeat with more layers of background colors...same or different. Then I brayer my VM on to highlight the raised portions of the pattern with my lighter colors....in this case the pink and white. Since I wanted the birch trees to be significantly lighter than my background, I gently swept off most of the white EP that clung to other parts so only the trees got the white....for the most part. I don't always sponge ink over the finished piece, but in this case I wanted any unembossed areas of the white cardstock to be dark, so I used the deep purple ink to accomplish that. Sorry for the lengthy explanation. Hope it makes sense. :)<br /><br /><3<br />JanisJanishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13308728621651836815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937780407413119045.post-42306881010864914032015-01-24T12:58:30.481-08:002015-01-24T12:58:30.481-08:00Thanks so much, Paula!!!
