Christmas card and Birthday card

 Wednesday December 23, 2020

This Christmas card is for my Daughter in law.. once removed but never from my heart.. and her husband. I hand painted this Christmas tree and since they live in Vegas I added some snow that I am sure they are missing.  I kept it quite simple. I didn't want to add ornaments but now that I look at it I could of added a bird or squirrel..  I used Mission gold and Gouache for the snow.


Challenges:
Cute card Thursday #665 - anything goes
Sweet stampin - last min. Christmas
Crafting happiness #76 - anything goes
Simon Monday - celebrate
Paper minutes #672 - Christmas / New Year
Little red wagon #581 - Merry Christmas


This card is for my grandson who turns 12 on Dec. 23rd. I watercolored the background and used Prima pan paints and Kuretaki gansai silver. I used My favorite things and Paper Trey ink dies. I think he'll like this.
