I am up on the Picket Fence Studios Blog today sharing Christmas cards and a Rose card. I unapologetically love Christmas and I love creating Christmas projects! Fun for me because Picket Fence Studios July Release features several new Christmas items. For both cards, I used the beautiful Brocade Stencil which is not really a Christmas stencil but paired with Christmas colors and a Christmas sentiment it's Christmasy! The sentiment is included in the wonderful Believe in the Magic set.
I don't have a lot of variety in my watercolor powder colors so I decided to change the look of my powders a bit by first brushing Distress Ink through the Brocade Stencilwith my Life Changing Blender Brushes. (also sold in a discount Bundle) Next, I spritzed the paper with water and tapped on the watercolor powder. I love how the Distress ink changes the color just enough to give me a bit of variety. I wanted to cover up as little as possible of this interesting background so centered the sentiment from Believe in the Magic.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have enjoyed the inspiration!
