Hi you!

I love making Christmas cards. But I hate rushing, so I always start very early with my designs. That way I can vary between different occasions when card making.

This one is actually quite simple to make. All it takes is some watercoloring.

I stamped my image from Avery Elle – Sledding Critters on Bristol Smooth paper. I used Versafine Onyx Black ink for this. I already cut my card panel with the Basic Rectangles from Mama Elephant.

I watercolored the image with my Zigs and a Royal & Langnickel brush (size 2, 4, 6). The colors I used, are listed below:

  • Red – Deep Red
  • Dull Blue – Peacock Blue
  • Mid Brown – Dark Brown
  • Pale Gray – Light Gray
  • Ochre
  • Blush – Light Beige
  • Emerald Green – Deep Green
  • Oatmeal – Beige

When the painting was complete, I stamped my sentiment in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

I put this panel on my card base and the card was done.

I hope I gave you some inspiration to make someone’s heart happy. 

Love, Jarle x
