Intersection

 Hello All,

For today I will be playing around with Time Out Challenge. Their theme is near and dear to my heart, cities. My minor in college was urban planning and cities, of course, were a major theme in my studies. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

This card is all about the intersection between Life in the City and Nature. I envision this as a clearing in nature and far off you see the buildings of the city. Getting away to nature from the city is something that is very important to me and my family.

Parks in a city are so important and an essential part of city life. 
Nature is rejuvenating and when surrounded by concrete, buildings, and loud traffic, nature can be a well-deserved escape. 

The cityscape was done by stamping only the top of the stamp and with my finger, I brushed the ink downward to create the fade. The foreground is a pine needle stamp I usually use for Christmas but thought it would be perfect here too. It gives the design a sense of depth and space

  1. I love the thought behind this card-I too love to escape the city for some nature and am lucky enough to live walking distance from some lovely pathway walks that are so peaceful-very different to the centre of London! And your cards shows this wonderfully. There is so much depth to it-the city in the background, all layered up and then the nature nearer to us-a super design. Thanks for joining Time Out x
