Hello there! It's been a few days since I've updated my blog....I had some minor surgery on Wednesday and wasn't really feeling like being crafty, but today I am feeling much better and missed playing with my stuff! :)
I chose to use watercolor pencils. I love how this card turned out....very pretty and Christmasy! :)
The stamp is an old one from Northwood stamps, and I stamped it on watercolor paper and clear embossed. That makes it easier for me to control the watercolor.
I added some clear stickles to the ground to make it look more like snow. I used sizzix dies to die cut the image and mat piece, then mounted the whole thing on red.
Here's a close up of the watercoloring:
I mounted everything onto a black notecard and stamped a sentiment and embossed with white embossing powder.
I am happy with how this turned out and be sure to stop by and visit again!
Have a good night! :)
This is beautiful Kathryn. I love the stamp and the great colouring.

Your card certainly caught my eye! First of all, your name, second, what a pretty winter scene! Lovely card!
ReplyDeleteKathryn, thanks for linking up your card to the challenge over at YNS! This scene imitates those crisp sunny days in the winter perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're well rested and healed up from your surgery.
What a great way to pull in all the colors from the latest YNS challenge. Embossing to control the water coloring - why didn't I think of that??!!!
