The Northern lights are totally on my bucket list to go to see them! The photos I see are just incredible! (You can see what I am talking about HERE) Since I can't go NOW, I enjoyed making a card inspired by them~
I started with swiping on greens, blues, and some purple, and then swiped black. I used a torn template, and sponged on thick black for the hill, and then stamped the tree images using Versafine Black ink - a totally black, black ink [that I adore!]. I splatted on some watered down white paint for the snow, and added a white embossed sentiment.
I am loving this card!
Your turn. I hope you join in, making a Northern Lights card is really fun. Not inspired by that, but just the colors? Go for it! See you over at the Just Us Girls Challenge #573~
Thanks for stopping by~

Hi Vicki. I just saw this on the JUG blog - you have outdone yourself on this one. It is gorgeous. Had to pop over and tell you so!
This is gorgeous, amazing job on the Northern Lights! We were going to see them last year in Alaska, hopefully in the future.
Absolutely gorgeous! This is by far the prettiest northern lights recreation in card form that I've ever seen! Love it!
Wow.... I am loving this card too Vicki. It is amazing, creative and stunning x....

This is absolutely stunning! Your northern lights are so perfect and the black silhouette images really make that sky glow. Thanks for embracing this challenge to the fullest!
I love how you angled your lights, Vicki. It's like the heavens opened up to let them shine through.
What an amazingly stunning card! I'm impressed with how you created the stream of light!
Nailed it! That is all!!!
Gob smackin' gorgeous Vicki. Beautiful bold bright background lights. Hope you get to see them irl one day.
Your *swinking* captures the Northern Lights beautifully! Love the way the glow backlights your silhouette images. Hope your travels to see them come to fruition!

Such a cool background! I never thought of just swiping the ink with the ink pad. Love the scene you created too!
What a stunning card Vicki! I love how you turned the northern light into a fabulous tropical sky! This is brilliant!
