Looking outside today, this is what the weather looked like for awhile. It was so good to see the sun and the blue sky. Didn't last long enough though. Anyways, I noticed that the card I have been posting lately are blue. I am not feeling 'blue' these days...guess it is my love of the blue distress inks and wanted to play with them. I was playing along with the Featured Stamper challenge today at Splitcoast.
I stamped the winter image from Penny Black called Snowy Park with Memento black then embossed it. Next, I rubbed on distress inks then, using my water pen, highlighted the trees. Since the ink is water soluble, the water dilutes it making it look like snow on the trees. I added the sentiment All is Calm and embossed it with clear. I then used an embossing folder to create the bkg.
So glad you came by to take a look today. Sure hope that maybe, you are enjoying sunny skies too.
Supplies: stamps; Penny Black/ Distress inks/ eb folder Provo/ eb powder/ Memento black
