Technique
1) Cut and score a piece of Neenah 110lb cardstock to create a card base that measures 4.25 x 5.5 inches. Cut another panel of 80lb Neenah cardstock to measure 4 x 5.25 inches.
2) Ink blend distress oxide inks onto the panel, fading from dark to light. Once dry splatter with water and spray with sparkle spray. Mix a small amount of gouache with water and splatter the panel. Put aside to dry.
3) Die cut the snowflakes in various colours. Make some one layer and others double thickness to create dimension.
4) Once the panel has dried, mix some texture paste and glitter paste together. Apply the paste over the snowflake stencil, covering one corner/area of the panel. Put aside to dry.
5) Die cut the merry christmas sentiment three times and glue together.
6) Once the panel is completely dry adhere to the card base with foam tape. Glue the snowflakes and sentiment with liquid glue and add coloured gems.
