Peaceful Deer

Do you like this quiet, peaceful scene? I think sometimes we create by accident. I was challenged to use a reflection technique, and when I was done, I was amazed. I am my own worst critic, but I liked this card. More than likely, I will never be able to recreate it again. Thoughts?

First, I sponged the top half of the Whisper White panel with Daffodil Delight. 

I then stamped the trees and the deer.

I watercolored the lake using Bashful Blue. 

Next, I used the acetate panel to add the reflection on the water. I lined up the front legs of the stag, and the rest fell into place.

I then used watercolor pencils to color in the trees and the deer. I used two greens on the trees and two browns on the deer. I used the blender pen to pull down color onto the base of the trees and to add a bit of movement to the water where the deer stood. I used the markers for defining lines on the deer.

Lastly, I stamped the sentiment and adhered the other Whisper White panel to the inside of the card.
