Peace on Earth

A Transformation Tuesday and Michelle Leone has us transforming an

old feminine card into something with a holiday flare.

My former card was for a MIM challenge, and had decidedly feminine elements.

The re-do card had a gathering of elements with a background of snow from the new

Winter Fox Stamp Set. I love Heather's sweet faced fox, and stylized trees, and enjoyed

stamping him arctic blue.

SAF 2017: Take Ten Warm Up Challenge

Silver Fox

Playing along with Cas Watercolour Challenge, 

a new card challenge for all of us who love to watercolor.

This is my 2nd card, this time using a technique 

Kay Miller showed us here:

Thanksgiving Inspirations

I embossed the fox from Kay's set: Stylized Autumn, 

in silver embossing powder,

directly onto watercolor paper.

Then masked him as I stamped the leaves around him,

rolling the ink in first one color then another.

I then dragged my wet brush all around the leaves.

The colors bleed out onto the paper, giving it a cool watercolor effect!

Then I stamped and did the technique onto flower and leaf die cuts 

from the same set.

I also added a bit of shading to the fox's eyes and ears.

Did I mention that this is the 1st challenge for this 

sister blog to Cas Mix Up Challenge? 

Now you know!
