My first card features the Copprtplate Happy Holidays. The background was created by ink blending aqua and gray dye inks through the Snowflake Ornaments stencils and over the circle masks included in the set. Kept it simple and left out the snowflake layer.
The attachment pieces and strings were inked with VersaMark then heat embossed with Liquid Platinum embossing powder. Added crosses/dots with a white gel pen to finish.
My next card features the Copperplate Merry Christmas. Thought it would work nicely with the BetterPress Season’s Greetings Evergreens, which was inked and pressed in black.
Victorian Velvet distress ink was ink blended at the top. Splattered with diluted white gouache paint and used a white gel pen to add even more snow to finish.

I hadn't looked twice at these ornament stencils until now! Wow, what an awesome background for the beautiful Copperplate sentiment! The row of snowy pines are perfect with the Merry Christmas and again a wonderful choice of colors!
ReplyDeleteThe first card is fabulous - love the way you shaded the ornaments so that the aqua ornament stands out and looks 3D. The second one is a great example of non-traditional colours.
