For Your Inspiration Guest Design slot

I was privileged to be chosen as Lovely Lotus for challenge 7 on For Your Inspiration recently (you can see my card here). I received a prize of Charlotte with a rose rubber stamp - I blogged about it here - and the opportunity to be a Guest Designer, so I've joined the team for today's challenge 11, for which we were given this photo as inspiration:

I decided to produced my own 'quiet reflection' picture. I followed the tutorial given here (thanks to Stampin' Mama, Erika) for stamping my favourite inkadinkado trees stamp and making a reflection by stamping on a cello bag as per the tutorial, working on to white gloss card. The background was made with alcohol inks - the sky with a blend of stonewashed with blending solution, the grass with meadow and the water with a mixture of stonewashed, stream and a bit of blending solution.
