I hope everyone had a good weekend! We got our Christmas tree mostly up and I had a chance to work on some cards. My card today is for this week's color challenge at Splitcoast Stampers where Mary is the hostess. She has chosen Tranquil Tide, Lemon Lime Twist and Gold. Not exactly traditional Christmas colors but ones that work beautifully with today's card.
This was a super easy card to make. I used my Stamparatus to stamp the tree and trunk in Tranquil Tide ink. Then I went over what I had stamped with Versamark ink and used clear embossing powder to heat emboss over the tree and trunk in clear. I also heat embossed the sentiment in gold.
Next I used my aqua painter to wash over the tree with water; some of the Tranquil Tide ran give a nice light blue to the background but the snowflakes stayed in tact. Then I added a wash of Lemon Lime Twist.
Finally I mounted it all to an A2 card base and added a 1/4 inch strip of gold foil card stock and A gold enamel star to the tree top!
