This may be my favorite Christmas card for the year. On watercolor paper I smooshed distress ink and sprinkled on water. When the paper was dry I stamped the tree with VersaMark and heat embossed with white embossing powder. This piece was matted onto blue card stock. I die cut the words in blue cs, and dry embossed the tree folder and all components were assembled.
Paper - SU! Whisper White, Not Quite Navy, water color
Stamp - PTI "Through the Trees"
Embossing Folder - Paper Studio "Woodgrain"
Die Cut - Paper Smooches "Christmas Words"
Distress Ink - Faded Jeans, Chipped Saphire, Pine Needle, Rusty Hinge
Other - VersaMark, White Embossing Powder
This is a second card I made using different colors.
Thanksgiving Blessings to all.
Lovely, I see why you like it so much. I really like the greenish one too.
