On my mind at night

So this is my card for this Stamping 411 sketch challenge 154. I tried to get the picture of the sketch, but I couldn't. This is one of my favorite stamp sets and I've always wanted to try a scene with it so I decided this was my chance. So first I embossed the image with black embossing powder. Then I punched a circle for the moon. I really wanted to brayer the blues, but I didn't have full sized ink pads in the colors I wanted, so I had to sponge on the ink from my stampin' spots. I used 4 different blues. I'm not completely happy with it, but it's not bad for my first try. I'll definitely be trying this again for both night time, dusk/dawn and daytime scenes.

The cardstock colors were inspired by an outfit my littlest boy has. It's navy, a slightly lighter blue, and then has a dinosaur embroidered in orange. I generally hate the color orange, but I love his outfit and really wanted to try it on a card. I really like it. I might try it again.

All in all, this isn't my favorite card, but it has a new technique and a color combo way out of my comfort range, so I'm happy about that.
