 Colorful Christmas...

   Hello and welcome!  Today’s card features this super fun Holiday set from SimonSaysStamp (Color Me Trees) and watercoloring using Zig Clean Color real brush markers.  To start, I die cut a piece of SimonSaysStamp black cardstock using Lawn Fawn’s snowy backdrop and stitched Hillsides from Neenah solar white cardstock.  Next, I stamped images onto Bristol smooth paper using Versafine Onyx black pigment ink and heat embossed using Hero Arts clear embossing powder.  I then watercolored images by first adding color then using a wet brush mixing the colors.  I then die cut “snowflakes” using Lawn Fawn pixie dust cardstock.  Next, I stamped sentiment using both Distress Inks and Altenew Obsidian pigment ink.  To finish, I assembled elements and adhered to card base.  Thanks so much for stopping by... take care!  Please note: this card has been submitted to the current SimonSaysStamp Flickr Challenge #163
