Good morning! Hope your weekend is off to a great start! Popping in quickly to share card two for Day 4 of the Holiday Card Workshop at Online Card Classes.
I can't believe that for once I am more or less keeping with the pace! This card was inspired in the techniques shared by the delightful Laura Bassen.
I had this little houses die from Memory Box and I thought they would be perfect for this technique. First, I masked and inked the background. Then, I die cut the houses from acetate to make my own stencil. I used the negative portion for the colorful houses, and then the positive (the actual acetate little houses) to add the doors and windows with white pigment ink. A LOT of masking tape and posts it were involved, ha!
I used all Distress Inks. Tumbled Glass, Broken China and Chipped Saphire for the background, The houses -ala Bassen rainbow style- are Festive Berries, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers and Picked Raspberry. The sentiment is Technique Tuesday.
So one more card down! And I still have a third one, plus all the tags from Day 5. Stay tuned and thanks for stopping by :)
love this- such a pretty scene! such great colors & i love the fonts in the sentiment and the quiet falling snow!
