STAMPlorations CAS December challenge

Hi Friends! Happy December! Yup, it's already December. I suspect the big guy at the North Pole is getting things ready for his big show on the 25th. Anyway, we have a new challenge at STAMPlorations CAS

No photo description available.

Here's my card


I started by stamping STAMPlorations Typografia Christmas stamp using Versafine Onyx black ink onto an A2 panel of 96 lb bristol. I put the panel aside to ensure that the ink dried completely. I then tried my hand at freehand watercolouring a Christmas tree over the stamped image. I picked up distress ink (mowed lawn, lucky clover) with my water brush with very little water and made some short strokes moving left to right. I ended up with horizontal lines of colour. I added a bit of water to help to lightly blend the ink. I again, set the panel aside to dry completely. I added some adhesive red pearls and used a gold glitter pen to colour in the tiny star atop the tree to complete the card. 

We'd love to have you join us at STAMPlorations CAS Challenge.
