Scene by the sea

I have used my usual sponging and masking techniques to create this scene but by masking a straight line through the sky and sponging below it I was able to give the appearance of an ocean view.
I sponged blue on the top third of the panel, green on the lower third and yellow in the middle. I then cut a hill shaped mask and sponged green below the mask, re-positoned it and sponged a second paler hill behind. I stamped the Queen Anne’s Lace in two green tones then finally positioned the straight mask to create the ocean in the distance.
The current One Layer Wednesday in on Ardyth’s blog for a few more hours (sorry for the late notice) and the new one will be on Cheryl’s blog tomorrow.

Inks: Memento Summer Sky, Pistachio, Olive Grove, Dandelion (Tsukineko)

You are the best Heather! You are my inspiration!
That’s the best kind of ocean — calm and serene. 😉 Such a pretty scene.
Oh, my… I am ready to walk along the beach! Your card is beautiful!
Hi Heather, I just found a lot of your cards on Pinterest and wanted to tell you how much I love the CAS style of your cards. Very inspring.

I think your work is unique and I am trying to work on some of your techniques. I wish you would have a class or more videos. Thank you for the inspiration.
