Back To Basic's Using Birdie Brown Christmas Release.

Hello There Crafty Friends,

I thought I had sorted all my Christmas cards for this year, but I couldn't resist the latest release from Birdie Brown (My Favorite Things ) Pile on the hugs, this stamp set was just so cute with the images of children playing in the snow. I am as you know a huge Birdie Brown fan.

So today ive gone back to basic's by simply used my pencils to colour the children and stencil to create the snow drifs in the background.

Method

First cut your card stock, just a 1/2 in smaller that a 6 x 6 card Blank.

Then using the stencil and the oxide in add in your snow banks.

Next I heat embossed the sentiment and splatted on the gouche paint to look like snow.

I put this to one side to dry. 

Then Stamped and coloured my images

I then added these to my back ground using 3D foam squares.

Finally I added glue to the tops of the snow drifts and parts of the images then sprinkled glitter.

 I added the sequins to finish.

I hope you enjoyed going back to basic's today. Next week we will be bring out the zig water markers.

Happy Stamping

Jo
