Let It Snow

 

This is "Let It Snow".

My design is a whimsial design which started with this pillow from the Inspiration site. I did not follow exactly the designs done on the pillows, my design is more whimsical!

To start with my card is 4 1/4 square. I did not have black watercolour paper so I painted the background using Daniel Smith Payne's Grey watercolour, applying five layers of paint.

Using Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleedproof White fine art paint I added the trees, along with the stars and some splatters. 

I layered the piece which is 4x4 inches with a piece of Neenah white cardstock, then attached it all to a Gina K Designs Black Onyx cardbase.

For the inside I added the white Neenah cardstock along with the die cut sentiment which is double layered, and cut from the Black Onyx cardstock.

I did consider black splatter inside the card, then thought better of it as it would mean waiting for it to dry, which can take quite awhile and I really did not think it would add anything to the design. 

So I opted for that Clean and Simple look.

Thanks so much for joining me today. I hope you have enjoyed this whimsical card asking for snow, and I have been granted snow. It is snowing outside as I write this up. And it is so peaceful too despite it being 2:30 in the afternoon!

See you next time.
