I'm quickly popping in to share a card I created for this week's Merry Monday #64. I love this week's sketch:
My card:
I wanted to do something different - out of my comfort zone - I wanted to create a snowy Christmas picture using the masking and sponging technique. This is my very first attemept, and I'm really happy how my card turned out. The base of the card is Whisper White, then I used the patterned paper from SU! Pocketful of Posies. The beautiful tree is from SU! Lovely as a Tree Stamp Set. I used torn paper to mask the bottom of the card. I then sponged the top portion and bottom using Baja Breeze ink. I stamped the images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The trees that are on the edges, I stamped it two more times, without re-inking to make them appear more distant. The seniment is from SU! For the Holidays.
Thanks for so much for stopping by,
