Mark's Finest Papers January Release - In the Forest

Today 4 new Mark's Finest Papers stamp sets are being released.  Today we are featuring In the Forest.  If you start at the Mark's Finest Papers blog and follow the links, you can view the DT's creations featuring In the Forest.  If you leave a comment on the DT blogs, you will be entered for a chance to win a not yet released stamp set.
 This image is from In the Forest and it is a partial silhouette stamp.  There is enough open space for the animals to color them in.  I brayered the background first, then stamped the image with Versafine Onyx Black.  I then colored in the animals with a light brown marker and a white gel pen.  The background image is from another MFP set - Stinky Situation.
Thanks for coming by!

    I love how you used the birches as a simple background for your vibrant coloring on the forest image. Beautifully done, Harriet.
