JTook a Bristol panel with a circle die cut in the center from my stash and die cut over the circle opening with the Winter Tree Oval image die to create an oval aperture. I wanted to use the oval frame left over from this Winter card. The row of white trees were unused from this Northern Lights card when I thought black trees were more appropriate.
The watercolour background was one of my experimental pieces when playing around with the Raining Watercolors technique. Just added snow to it with a white gel pen. The silver foil peace sentiment was initially for this AI vellum card, but a blue foil sentiment edged it out. Assembled onto a white top folding card base to finish.

Trina, I am loving these cards you've done in blue for Christmas. They are all beautiful and this sky is so pretty. I need to go look up the raining watercolor technique because it made such a stunning card. Merry Christmas to you!
Okay, I'm back. I do remember that card from before. I must not have paid attention to the name of the technique but it gets wonderful results. Something new to try in the new year. I'm all carded out right now!
Gorgeous ink blending on your sky and I love that you chose an oval frae for your trees! Another beautiful Christmas card, Trina! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Addicted to CAS!
