Hi there and welcome back to my blog. My header for December is one of my backyard bird boxes which during the Spring and Summer is home to families of bluebirds. A squirrel was enjoying breakfast on the bird house patio this morning! My card today is for the challenge over at Christmas Craft Creations.
The Challenge for December is to make a scene!
I began with stamping the scene on glossy white cardstock with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink and heat embossing with Clear Detail.
The Sweet Poppy bauble stencil was placed over the scene and I applied Broken China ink to the bauble area.
The inked scene was die cut and then spritzed with water. It gives a lovely mottled effect.
The stencil was placed on white glossy cardstock again and I colored the leaves with Peeled Paint and the ribbon with Iced Spruce. A red Copic marker was used for the berries.
The die cut bauble was then taped on top.
The panel was layered to a light blue mat and then layered onto a white card base to finish off my card for today.
