Peace and Joy...
   Hello friends, countdown to Christmas has begun!! Today's card features a cutie stamp from Art Impressions "Savior Window" and watercoloring using Distress inks (spun sugar, tumbled glass, broken China, weathered wood, fossilized Amber, and seedless preserves).  To start, I stamped image onto a piece of Strathmore's mixed media paper, die cut inside image (LF's stitched rectangles), heat embossed image while keeping both negative and positive pieces taped together.  I then watercolored image using the above mentioned distress inks, applying color layer by layer, adding shadows and depth.  To finish, I added foam adhesive to positive panel piece and then added liquid adhesive to inside (image) negative piece, hoping this would add a little interest to an otherwise simple card.  Thanks so much for stopping by...take care!
