Morning!
Today's card is a bit of a throwback.
It's the winter version of a card I made back in May using leftovers from that same project:
Stamps: PTI - Brushed Birds, WPlus9 - Most Wonderful
Die: PTI - Brushed Birds, Sizzix - Tim Holtz - Holiday Greens
Other: Distress Oxides
The only difference here is that I flipped the layout, used a festive sentiment, and used a different combination of Distress Oxides for the sky.
Plus a white pen added great snow highlights to the branch and to bring out snowflakes in the sky where the misted background isn't so clear. It tends to get a bit hazy over Distress Oxides I've found.
For extra festive sparkle I also added some Wink of Stella on the darker teal parts of the birds.
It's such a simple card design, but I love how versatile it will be by simply changing the ink colours for the background and the birds.
Happy crafting, until next time!

I was wondering...can you come over and teach me how to make those incredible backgrounds?! You've blown me away. And for a minute, I thought you might've picked up a few spruce branches from outside. They look sooooo life-like. Your use of the white gel pen has given them such dimension. I love this card. It's simply amazing. Seriously though...you should come over! Stay safe. Bev
