Peaceful Deer Christmas. Hand stamped sentiment #392



 This is my card for the sketch challenge at Hand stamped sentiment Here


 

Background:  I created the background using stencils, ink, blending brushes, water, and glitter glue.
First, using a diagonal stencil, the following colours were applies using the blending brush, at random - Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Orchid Oasis. Then the stencil was removed, and the entire piece of card stock was inked with Orchid Oasis ink.
To get the splatter effect, water was flicked onto the surface.  When dry, I used the snowflake stencil (retired SU) to apply glitter glue snowflakes at random. After they were dry, white pearlized enamel effects was added to the center of each snowflake.




The deer and trees, and sentiment, were white embossed on Orchid Oasis card stock.  The deer and trees were added to 2" vellum circles with dimensionals, and the circles added to the front cardstock with dimensionals.
