I decided to use some wintery trees with a light snowfall:
For the trees, I tapped Distress Evergreen Bough and Bundled Sage on my craft mat, spritzed generously with water, and smooshed / splashed a piece of watercolour paper into it.
When dry, I die cut the three trees.
I tore some strips of cs for the snowy hills, ran my Versamarker along the torn edges, and heat set with Frantage Chunky White embossing powder.
I put together the scene, then die cut it with a circle. For the lightly falling snow, I sprinkled with the Frantage and heat set from underneath. Finally popped it up on fun foam on a square card base.
Head on over to CAS Watercolour for more inspiration from our Design Team and this month's fabulous Guest Designer, Janet (Swanlady Impressions). You only have until January 24th to link up your clean and simple winter-themed card. I can't wait to see what you create!
