It's time for our Wednesday challenge over at
The House That Stamps Built. This week it's Tic Tac Toe - choose three items (across, down, or diagonally) and make a card! I chose the top line -- Pearls, Christmas, & Silver.
To create my background I:
- Used sponge daubers to blend Chipped Sapphire and Peacock Feathers Distress Ink together on watercolor paper
- Spritzed with water and heat set
- Diluted a bit of Metallic Pearl White Acrylic Paint with water and splashed it over the surface
Originally I stamped my Shepherd Boy in sliver embossing powder directly onto the background. Since he didn't stand out enough that way, I re-stamped him on white card-stock and colored him with Touch Five Markers and Prismacolor Pencils, adding a few accents with a white gel pen.
Inside I added another stary night piece with a Repeat Impressions sentiment embossed in white.
