Here is my humble attempt at a sponged scene.
I stamped the image in Noir. I used Post-its as masks for the moon and beam. I sponged in the sea and sky.
This card also used masking.
I stamped the lighthouse in Noir. Next, I used a long Post-It to create the horizon. The sea and sky are sponged in with distress inks. The image was colored with markers.
Welcome, Anna, to your first MFP Blog Hop (btw, we are no more talented than you are as evidenced by these two beauties). I love your coloring, the second one has depth to the ocean and I never thought of that. Great work!
