Distress Ink landscape

This is my first attempt at following one of Michelle Zindorf's tutorials. Michelle is an amazing artist who generously shares her ideas on her blog. For this one she used Distress Inks direct to paper. I hadn't tried that before, but they work beautifully. Michelle's tutorials are very easy to follow, and her instructions for this card can be found here.

Instead of the Stampin' Up tree which Michelle used, I chose to use one from Crafty Individuals, because it fitted my frame better. Also, I had to change some of the colours because I didn't have all the ones Michelle used. Otherwise, I followed her instructions pretty closely. I think the result is a testament to just how clear and well-explained her tutorials are. Thanks, Michelle! I really enjoyed making this card.
