Sending You Peace

Happy Saturday

Another clean and simple card for the holidays.

I was inspired after checking out the IC Challenge today at Splitcoast and found this pin from the inspiration Pinterest Board of these vintage ornaments.

So here is what I did to create my card.

• I began with a piece of heavy white cardstock, my Misti, Deco Foil Stencil Pat, inks and some small sponge dabbers.
• I laid down the Stencil Pal and using Distress Oxide inks, I inked the lines on my card panel going in a diagonal fashion.  Super simple. The Distress Oxide colours I used were Shaded Lilac, Cracked Pistachio, Mustard Seed, Abandoned Coral, Broken China and Picked Raspberry.
• Next, I placed the piece into my Misti and inked up the snowflake with some Versafine Clair and pressed onto my inked panel.
• I splattered the panel using my black Posca pen to add interest.  I just remove the cap and tap with a ruler over the whole piece.
• I stamped the sentiment from Impression Obsession on a separate piece of  white cardstock and clear heat embossed it.  I mounted that onto a piece of black and pop dotted it over the bottom of the panel
• I glued the finished panel onto some black and then onto a heavy white card base.

For those who have asked what a Deco Stencil Pat is, here is a picture of what it looks like:

It is a great tool for applying Gesso, Texture paste etc. through a stencil to get a nice smooth application.  One edge is flat, so that's what I used.  

Hope that helps.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
