Winter Scene

Welcome

Meet today's card inspired by the snow falling outside.

I'm not a big fan of the snow, but it does look pretty on the trees.

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I began with a piece of white cardstock and positioned the Watercolor Wash Free form mask over my paper on my Make Art Station.
• Next, I tore some paper strips from some scraps that I wanted to use to create the look of snowbanks in the scene.  
• I began at the top of the masked area and sponged on some Boken China Distress Oxide ink.  I then sponged some Peacock Feathers just under that, leaving the bottom area un-inked.  I darkened the sky a bit at the top with some Uncharted Mariner DOX ink as well.
• Ok...now for the torn paper strips.  I laid one on and inked above it with some Cracked Pistachio. I removed that and used another one that I had torn to ink again, moving it down and leaving some white space to look like the snowbanks.
• I removed the torn paper but left the mask in place and stamped the trees using my Misti.
• I splattered with my white Posca pen and removed the mask.
• I stamped the sentiment in the top corner.
• I glued the finished panel onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto an A2 card base.
• Finally, I added 2 black gems on either side of the sentiment.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
