Trees in the Moonlight

Using Serene Silhouettes, my Brayer and some bleach I created a few scene cards...this is the first one. I used a toothpick to dot the bleach around the moon and used a watercolor brush to paint the tree branches with bleach as well.
A post-it was used to mask off the tree line and to create the moon mask.
The main image is framed with copy paper instead of CS to cut back on the weight with four layers! 

Stamps: Serene Silhouettes.
Paper: White Glossy CS, Old Olive CS, Midnight Muse CS, copy paper.
Ink: Old Olive, Summer Starfruit, Island Indigo, Midnight Muse, Stazon Black.
Accessories: 1-1/4" Circle Punch, Sponge, Brayer, Black Starpie Fine point marker, Watercolor Brush.
