I have been neglecting my Bister powders, so I decided to make a card featuring their unique wood tones of color and a beautiful sailboat at sunset scene from Creative Vision Stamps. I heat embossed the scene with black embossing powder on watercolor paper. Then I sprinkled on blue, red and yellow Bister crystals and spritzed with water. After the piece was dry, I colored the boat to make it a black silhouette and the moon with a yellow distress marker. I layered on black and then on a blue card base.
I am entering this card in the Anything Goes challenge at Simon Says Stamp and the "Create a Scene" challenge at DRS Designs.

Gorgeous card Karen! I so love my Bister and Colorburst powders! Thanks so much for introducing me to them. Hugs, Robin
Wow! This is so inky and cool!!! Gorgeous scene.
Love the drama of this scene Karen - it was also nice to see some 'pigment colour spots' in your background - I thought I was the only one getting those, and thought I was doing something wrong. :-) looks as though they are just part of the process.
