Punched a 3/8″ circle punch from the sticky part of a post it note and used it to mask my moon on a 4″ x 6″ piece of Whisper White card stock.

Ripped a post it note and masked for the largest hill.

Ripped a second post it note and mask for the small hills in the distance.

Brayered Crumb Cake ink at the top of the card stock.

Moved the top post it note down a bit and sponged Garden Green ink in for the top hill, leaving a bit of white showing at the top of the hill.

\

Removed the top mask and sponged Garden Green in the middle hill leaving a bit of white showing at the top of the hill.

Removed the bottom post it note and ripped a new one to mask for the brook.

Sponged Elegant Eggplant in the unmasked hill area.

Removed Brook mask and sponged Bashful Blue ink in the brook area.

Drew in a few little rock shapes using an Elegant Eggplant marker.

Stamped the deer using Basic Black ink.

Sponged Chocolate Chip ink at the bottom of the hill and along the edge of the brook.  Added 2 Elegant Eggplant panels and one Whisper White panel.

Punched one Curly Label punch from Elegant Eggplant card stock and then cut the label in two to use them as an embellishment.

Added 4 Gold Brads.

Here is the finished card measuring 5″ x 6.5″.

May your day be filled with wonderful things.
