Warm Wishes and Winter Foliage
>> Wednesday, January 24, 2018
With all the cold weather around the world right now, I wanted to do a card full of warm wishes.
I made the background by rubbing SU! ink on some aluminum foil and then splattering some white acrylic paint and water on it. I soaked up the ink and paint with my paper and dried it. I did the same with some Tim Holtz distress ink in vintage photo. I used the brown to die cut my branches wth the Tim Holtz Branch die and then I hand-cut some leaves. I added more textute to the leaves with a stylus and then added some Stickles sprinkled with glittery clear embossing powder. I did the same to the berries on the branches. I heated it all up and it bubbled up and made some great texture. Then I stamped the DRS Designs Warm Wishes Greeting and cut it out like a banner. I finished it all off with a splattering of diluted Snowtex.
Hope you are staying warm!
