good morning Tuesday

well they said we would have wind coming over
it’s howling out side …been at it most of the night
not got much sleep with things banging around out there
so here  is my cards  for today
from the new just my imagination range from

P1050604
i inked up my embossing folder with ink placed centura pearl card on top ran it through my Grande Caliber
i love the effect  it gives you looks like vintage wall paper
then stamped the stag masked him off and then stamped the small tree’s
coloured in with my spectrum noir and just added some cosmic shimmer twinkles for snow and on antlers
cut out the topper with a die distressed around the edge and made a faux layer of gold mirri

 P1050630
had alittle fun with this card and distressing inks simply masked out the squares
coloured with 3 different distressing inks lightly dropped some water over and dabbed off with tissue to get snow effect
over stamped the tree then went in with white acrylic paint to re claim the snow
added twinkles then stamped the sentiment with Tim Holts distressing pens in the 3 inks to pull it all together
added crystal glitter around the edge and simply matted onto a plain black card base
a very modern twist using a traditional image
thank you for popping by today
hugs Linda xx
