Merry Christmas

 

Happy Thursday Peeps!!

Today's  card share is made using the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches.

I have been playing this week with the Snow Globe Scene Dies, while these was

made to use to make Snow Globe cards, they stand alone beautifully.

I love them! I have made a few cards with just the dies I will be sharing soon.

When I saw the sketch I knew what I wanted to try and do.

I used water color paper to make my Background.

I used my Pacific Point ink pad and aqua painter and "washed" the entire piece going lighter

as I went down. I wen back over the top a few times to get the color I wanted.

I dried the piece with my heat tool, tho you wouldn't have to do that, you could just let it dry naturally, but I didn't want to wait. 

 

After it was dried, I added small drops of water all over the piece and after letting it

sit for a minute or so, I used a paper towel to dab the drops. That is what creates the splothes of lighter color you see.

I then embossed this piece with the Subtle EF, putting it through both directions.

I then die cut the trees using Garden Green and the Bears using Silver Foil paper.

I added the trees to the background piece with dimensionals.

The sentiment piece was next, I stamped it in Real Red.

The sentiment is from the set From Our House to Yours.

I added it over the bottom edge of the trees with glue and  added a couple of dimensionals 

on the bottom edge.

I then added the Bears gluing them directly to the panel.

 

I matted this piece with a piece of the Silver Foil paper.

I added it to the thick Whisper White base with dimensionals and then finished with

a few Rhinestones from the Holiday Rhinestone pack.

Listed below are all the "ingredients" used to make this card.
