In the bleak midwinter
Wow I am super excited about this one. I had something in mind some embossing and I was enjoying playing and experimenting and something, in my opinion rather special happened.This stunning tree mini stamp is by Alison Bomber from PaperArtsy ABM016. I wanted to try stamping in gold embossing powder. I can't believe how good it looks in gold.
The magic had begun to happen!
Alcohol ink, Mushroom, on Dura Lar film left over from another project, Lindy's background left over from another project. The stamp in the background is Alison Bomber ABM007. No I don't mind that I have a little upside down stamping it's just a texture and I was just experimenting without an end goal.
Then playtime.
I quite simply love this effect!
Who would need anything more for a stunning Christmas card?
Look at the depth the alcohol overlay creates.
Additional supplies bleed proof white ink, PaperArtsy gold fresco finish acrylic paint, my favourite as well as Distress inks.
Peacock feathers, black soot and blueprint sketch. Glitter cardstock by Tim Holtz.
Monday Challenge trees.



Looks really beautiful. The gold definitely makes it feel like there's magic in the air. I love the background a lot, too. Thank you for sharing this card with our Anything Mixed Media Goes challenge at Creative Artiste. Anita xx
