Shopping Our Stash #400!!  Christmas in July

7/27/2019

2 Comments

 
Here's my motivation for this first time challenge called "Shopping Our Stash."  There's only a few days left in July for creating Christmas in July themed cards!!!  After that, I'm done 'til December when I prefer to crunch Christmas...!!!

I'm a life-long resident of Upstate New York and absolutely know about the winter season and especially Christmas time.  Skies are dark and dramatic which is what prompted this card design.  I smooshed Distress Oxides onto watercolor paper to begin my card background. 

​I always love where a design takes me.  You can actually see a hill in the background which was completely random.  I'm totally happy with the sentiment ink as I didn't want it to be loud and bold.  This is a quiet wood scene such as we'd find along a snowmobile trail.  I did splatter with silver acrylic paint.  Super happy with this card.

I live in Northern Indiana and I also see Winters like the one on your gorgeous card.
Your ink smooshing is spectacular, I also see a hill in the distance and you created a wonderful Winter scene.
Thank you for sharing with us at SHOPPING OUR STASH.
Hugs,
