I stamped the largest cloud in Blushing Bride and cut it out with its matching die. I inked the edges with Versa Magic Perfect Plumeria chalk ink. The cup liner is cut out from corrugated white paper and colored with a diluted bit of Pool Party reinker. I made the cherry by stamping the small cloud image in Raspberry Ripple and then using a small circle punch to punch out the cherry. The sentiment is from the Little Boy Toys set.
And, as I could not get enough of the Landscape Silhouette set, particularly the African plains image, I had to do a sunset image of Africa! This time my cloud images and matching dies are found in a tree!
Don't you just love the versatility of these clouds?? I stamped the clouds on River Rock cs using Old Olive and Lucky Limeade inks and die cut them out. I sponged my background on Naturals White cs and stamped a bit of a landscape silhouette image (duck in pond image) off the left side of the paper. The sentiment is from another new set, Across the Miles.
The tree trunk is free handed; the branches are made by using a Memory Box branch die.
