Snowy Woods

Hello and Welcome.

I've been working away trying to get some holiday cards done.  

This is a new stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called Tree Ring that I just had to play around with.  

This is what I came up with.

I began by spraying the back of my stencil with some Pixie Dust spray and placed it over my white cardstock.  Next, I took some Hickory Smoke, Frayed Burlap and Weathered Wood DOX inks and rubbed it over my stencil.  I removed the stencil then placed the piece into my Misti to stamp the Trees from IO and the sentiment from Penny Black.

I splattered it with some water to lift some of the ink then splattered again with some diluted white acrylic paint to give a snowy, winter feel.

I simply mounted it onto a heavy white card base.

I think this card has such a peaceful feel.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
