The Holly and Ivy team have some awesome creations to inspire you. Check out the DT over at The Merry Christmas blog.
Our theme is always the same.. ANYTHING GOES + CHRISTMAS
So in 2016 I got this stencil from Simon Says and I don't believe I've used it.. So again I made my smooshing water color background with Ranger inks and once it was dried I thought this would be the perfect snow looking background for this stencil. I used Ranger inks in greens and brown and dabbed in the trees. I then went over the stencil with Texture paste to create the snow.. obviously the snow picked up the green ink.. but it is suppose to be snow. I then used Simon Says die for the Merry Christmas and silver card stock I cut it out three times and layered them ... boy was that hard. but worth it. This was really a simple card to make. it just took drying time.

This is stunning. Love the die cuts and the metal sentiment. This is a wonderful scene.
The paint smooching and layering of the stencils creates a beautiful depth. Such a lovely winter scene, and hats off to you for having a Christmas card completed. Thanks for sharing at Jo's Scrap Shack.
