Cityscapes

Cath over at Moxie Fab World put forth a new challenge called The Cityscapes are on the Rise. I had created this skyline image awhile ago and it was sitting in my scraps box. I loved  the colors but set it aside as I had no inspiration for the design of the card.  Here is the end result.

 

The skyline was on one piece and I ended up cutting it into two circles and making a third circle to complete the design.   The skyline image is from B Line Designs and the map is from Cornish Heritage Farms and the sentiment Hero Arts. The images were stamped with Versafine Smokey Gray and clear embossed. The skyline is a combination of black dye ink and Rangers Distress Inks Wild Honey.  

Thanks for stopping by!

    I've missed a few lovely creations again Sue but these last two are my favourites.

    I love the colours you have used for the sky on this card. It's very unusual but so effective and the layout of the card is really inspirational.

    Incredible take on the challenge. Highlighting three sections of the skyline is great, and the map as background is perfect.
