It's time for another challenge with us at the
The sponsor for this challenge is:
Today I have used the beautiful Gabbie Holiday Belle digital stamp from Faery Ink, our generous sponsor this week.
I printed the image on A5 X-Press It blending card and heat set. I printed another copy of the image on copy paper, covered it with X-Press It Mask It then fussy cut.
I overlaid the mask over the image panel then inked the background with Old Paper Distress Ink. I heat set the inked panel then coloured with Copic Markers.
The droplets in the background were bleached with water then given some sparkle with a light touch of clear Wink Of Stella glitter brush. The snow at the bottom of the image was also given a touch of sparkle.
The card base is an A5 top fold, covered with patterned paper.
I matted the image panel with Olive cardstock, then made a Forest panel to offset it, adding a luscious coating of Old Paper Distress Ink to make the colour richer and the same tone as the image panel.
A cluster of poinsettia flowers were adhered in place to finish off this vintage card.
Notes about the Copic markers:
I used a different combo for the rich, dark hair - E57-47-79
I used a different red combo for her dress - R35-37-39
I tried a different green combo for the foliage - BG90-93-96-99 ... athough these greens look lovely and blend well together, this shade of green gets a little "lost" against her hair, so I will need to be more careful next time.
