Happy Moose Christmas
>> Wednesday, November 13, 2019
On today's card, I played with a new set of Tim Holtz dies that I received for my birthday (Merry Moose). I have loved every card I have seen with this set, and I am so glad my daughter bought it off my Amazon wish list.
The trees are cut from eight layers of a folded napkin. I watched a Splitcoaststampers.com video this week on using napkins in your art, and I really wanted to try it. Once the trees were cut, I water colored them with brown Brushos and let them dry. I cut the moose from some malted milk paper and water colored all the pieces. The gold pieces are from a left over facial cream package I have been saving (I love a good up-cycle). I hand cut the snow bank and added some watered down black on the edge. For my sentiment, I stamped the Small Merry Christmas Greeting and cut it out like a banner. After the moose was assembled and added to the scene, I flecked on some Snowtex.
Sounds like a lot of steps but it was really pretty easy. I made another one for my Pop's birthday card - what hunter doesn't like a card with game on it? LOL.
Hope your week is going well!
Hugz,
Nancy
