This weeks challenge at the
Paper Players is to make a traditional Christmas project using
RED and
GREEN. It is also Clean and Simple week so the "less is more" motto applies. I used a
Rubber Cottage stamp on this card. I posted a card made with this stamp last week. This image was stamped on white CS and last weeks was on kraft CS. You can see the other version
HERE. I love it when I can get different looks from the same stamp.
White acrylic paint was used to create the "faux" snow, then Stickles were applied to give it a little shimmer. Prisma colored pencils and Gamsol were used to color this image. Red Stickles were used for the berries. Unfortunately the photo doesn't show the depth of the snow. You can see it a little better in the next photo.
Back to creating cards in my Butterfly Garden.

Marie, I love this! I have a bit of an obsession with cardinals. I have a bird feeder right outside my window and I love looking out to see one of them. The coloring, the snow, and the sparkle are just stunning on your card. Wow!
