I live in the High desert of California, so the grass is brown most of the year for us. I chose to focus on the dusty dry hills and the many golden brown hues in my challenge inspiration photo.
For my three challenge colors, I chose to use dark brown, soft golden brown and a pop of blue to keep it all from looking too muddy. Keeping everything clean and simple.
I used Flourishes new "Country Roads" stamp set that I stamped in Memento "Rich Cocoa" ink onto some DP. Then I sponged around my image with some Memento "Desert Sand" and "Rich Cocoa" Ink. I matted it then added some Flourishes "Kraft Jute" and a small flower. Then I used my punches for interest on my two layers then matted my first layer onto my Kraft cardstock base.
