Wise Men

I made 2 of these cards - one with splatters of paint for snow and this one has no snow. I learned how to do this beam of light in Kristina Werner's online holiday card class a few weeks ago. I used Distress Oxides and blended the background. Cut out a triangle and used it as a mask and then used Hero Arts white pigment ink for the beam of light. I decided not to add a sentiment and I put one in the inside of the card.

"Tis the Season

I learned how to make a Christmas tree by using dots. Need to practice a little more on this technique.

Grateful

I masked off the top and bottom to make these pumpkins in a straight line. I saw this technique somewhere online but I can't remember where. It was really easy to do!

Happy "Fall" Birthday

As You Like It - Dies vs Stencils and Why? I love both die cuts and stencils but I love stencils more because they add a lot to a card without a lot of "bulk".

I colored the pumpkin border with watercolors and I colored the turkey using Copic markers.
