I'm so excited to be Guest Designer again at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. This week is a technique challenge.
I stamped the Polar Bears with Momento Black Ink and coloured with Copic Markers.
Stamp: Penny Black Nose to Nose
Die: Penny Black Happy Holidays
Stencil: Kaisercraft; Altenew Halftone Dots
This is how I made the background...
- Sponged Distress Oxide Tumbled Glass on to white card-stock.
- Stencilled some snowflakes & stars with the same ink.
- Stencilled some snowflakes and stars with DO Broken China and embossed with Speckled Egg Distress Embossing Glaze.
- Stencilled some more with Broken China, but didn't emboss.
- Stamped some script randomly with Broken China.
- Stencilled some dots with BC.
- Sponged ink around the edge of card and spritzed.
- When dry splattered some watered down White Gouache.
I hope you'll pop over to the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown blog to see what the Design Team have created and will be inspired to take your fave stencils and join in the fun. There are some video links over at the blog to give you some ideas.
What an amazing background, well worth all the different stencils and blending. I bet it has a lovely shine, sweet little polar bears too. Congrats on your guest designer slot xx
