Holiday Greetings

Good Morning
Today, I am playing with some cling wrap and my Distress Oxide inks.  You can get some really great looking backgrounds easily using the stuff.

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

• I began by inking up a piece of heavy white cardstock, starting at the bottom with the lightest colour and worked my way up.  I added some Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans and Blueprint Sketch.  I used a Ranger Blending tool to add the ink, blending the colours together.
• Next, I took out a piece of plastic wrap, wrinkled it up, sprayed it with water and laid my inked panel onto the wrap.  (The DOX inks are reactive with water so it lifts the inks.)  
• There are other ways to use this technique.  Try applying the ink directly to the plastic wrap, spray with water and put your cardstock onto that for a more intense colour lift.
• I let the wrap sit on the panel for a bit, removed it and then dried with my heat tool.
• When the panel was completely dry, I placed it into my Misti and stamped the trees from Impression Obsession.
• I stamped the sentiment from Studio G and clear heat embossed it. then using my Posca white pen, I splattered the panel with some white to look like snow.  
• I mounted the panel on a piece of white, then black, then onto a heavy white card base.  I think it has a nice peaceful feeling.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
