PIX’S HAPPY HOLIDAY

I started with the darling Pix’s Happy Holiday set and stamped several of the cute as can be images in Versafine Onyx Black ink on Arches watercolor card.

I used masking paper to cover one of the rabbits so I could stamp the tree as if it was tucked behind then watercolored each of the images and also a soft splattered skyline. I cut the panel with a Stitched Rectangle and mounted on a Fog card base.

For the sentiment, I cut the ‘oh joy’ from the Twinkle Towns die set from lightly painted watercolor card and then rubbed Ranger Multi Medium Matte over it before dunking it in my big tub of Rock Candy Distress Glitter.

 I added the sentiment with foam adhesive and then sprinkled on a good dose of sequins :D

MERRY MANTLE

For my next card I chose another adorable set; Merry Mantle. Again I stamped and masked a scene using Versafine Onyx Black ink on Arches cold pressed watercolor card, watercolored and then die cut with a Stitched Rectangle.

I used the ‘oh joy’ sentiment from Twinkle Towns again, die cutting from watercolor card painted red, rubbing with Ranger Multi Medium Matte and dunking in Rock Candy Distress Glitter.

I added the sentiment with foam adhesive and then dressed up some of the images with Star Dust Stickles on the hats, stars, present and fire and Ranger Glossy Accents on the bauble decoration.

The panel is then mounted on a Desert Storm card base to finish.
