Hello Sweeties,
Today I’m up on Lindy’s Gang blog with a set of Christmas cards.
For one of the cards, I used the traditional method to stamp the background, I used Black Archival ink.
For the other two I sprayed the stamp with the Narval Navy, I stamped twice on a blank paper to remove any excess ink, then stamped on my card. The result is a delicate and faded image tone-on tone. I love the result.
I colored some berries with Blushing Polar Bear and Snowy Tundra Sunset as well as some of the flowers. For the pine branches, I used both Iceberg Azure and C’est la Vie Cerise inks.
I covered the resin nutcrackers with Sterling Foundry wax, then with Soot and Ash Grey Antiquing waxes.
To finish, I added glitter, sequins, and some pearls.
