Penny Black Saturday Challenge

  Well hello there! It's the first Saturday of the month, so we have a new challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. 

This month our theme is 'ANYTHING GOES' or the twist 'CHRISTMAS'.

I made another Snowy card , but this time I made a Mixed Media background 

I began by making a light wash to the background. When dry I stamped and embossed 3 snowflakes with Pearl Embossing Powder. Then I stamped 3 more snowflakes with Karin Markers, spritzed liberally with water. The polka dots on the hat were added with white Gouache.  I stamped, coloured with co-ordinating colours and fussy-cut Snowy. To finish I stamped the sentiment and Snowy again on the white strip and added shading. 

Stamps: Penny Black Snowy, Snowfall

 The prize for this challenge is as always, provided by our generous sponsor
