Cooling Down A Little

I'm thinking of cooler times with my Christmas Card this week for 100 Proof Press using the fabulous Tall Confier image.

This stamp just cries out to be used for Winter cards, Christmas, birthdays or other occasions, I love it combined with the icy blues.

I masked the top and bottom half of my card to create a strip in the centre which I then coloured with Distress Inks broken china and faded jeans ink, spritzing with a little water for that snowy feel. My trees have been stamped with black archival ink with white highlights added to the brances with a white gel pen.

I added a large ornate snowflake cut using a Memory Box die, adhering two together for added dimension including a wooden snowflake added to the centre for further interest.  Happy Christmas has been stamped onto white card and coloured with broken china ink.

I also added a Tall Conifer to the inside of my card to give a professional finish.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Enjoy your weekend, I have a busy crafting weekend scheduled meeting deadlines and maybe a little time gardening. Tracy x x
