I am featuring such a great stamp set this month:Palm Trees, set of 3. Just a perfect sentiment and one of the many reasons I moved to warmer weather here in the South!  Even though our palms in SC are technically Palmettos - it still fits!

The background was created using distress inks and layering stencils- I love this technique because you get such and organic feel. 

Of course I used my MISTI for the stamping- almost a must for the silhouette stamps- and I just love how the Distress Paint layering shines through the Archival Black soot ink on the palm trees giving it an ethereal feel.

Thanks for joining me today and be sure to continue on the hop and don't miss any of the great inspiration from these talented artists.  Your next stop on the hop is the super talented Judy Jackson!
