I die cut all the pieces, sponged same color inks on the edges, then splattered the pine boughs and pinecones with watered down Copic Opaque White pigment. I also added some crystal coarse glitter (Martha Stewart). I intentionally didn't glue down all the leaves and portions of the bow so they would be more dimensional. I really love the textured details of the Nordic frame dies and those pinecones are so much fun to layer up as well!
STAMPS: Sentiment Suite: Christmas (The Greetery).
PAPER: Kraft, Aqua Mist (Papertrey Ink), X-Press It Blending Card (for a very stark white).
DIES: Nordic Frames, Botanicuts Pine Bough, Fit To Be Tied, Inside and Out Berry Branch - all by The Greetery.
We'd love to have you join us for this challenge and if you need more inspiration, stop by the blog and check out what the other talented designers have created HERE. ~Wanda
