Winter Trees


All my Christmas cards have been mailed and time to start working on the 100 Cards I am donating to Harvesters.  A few ideas have been running thru my mind and this one came out first.  Remember the Red and Grey Tree card a few weeks ago....this is similar using "Sheltering Tree". 

I stamped the Tree twice in Stazon Black using the Misti so I could get a nice dark tree.  I then added the Sentiment and somehow offset it a bit, but it still looks good.  The Pool Party card base was then sponged with Marina Mist and Perfect Plum.  I used the new Sponge Brayer on page 180 of the Annual catalog.  If you roll on the ink pad lightly, then on your paper the shading is very subtle.  I did not clean the sponge in between colors.

 I then used Whisper White Craft ink and added some of the Snow drifts and the Grunge from Gorgeous Grunge.  In person it looks like Wind is blowing over this card......really it does!!

Sorry for the shadow, I think that is my Head!!  LOL.......Thankfully none of this Blowing Snowing weather is coming our way in the next few days!
