Today's HYCCT challenge is to use no stamps. I chose dies.
I watercolored my background, added Snow-Tex and glitter and used my Kemper Tool to "splatter" white acrylic. I've had this tool forever and never used it (other than to use it to get the small pieces out of my dies). The other day,Dina Roedel Kowal posted a video on Facebook showing how to use it. Bingo...light bulb moment! Thanks, Dini. However, next time, I shall somehow "tent" my card as my desk, ink pads, blocks, etc are all covered with "snow splatters"!! Live and learn!
Have a great day.

This is enchanting! Your swirly painted bg is so pretty and the woodland creatures look right at home among the birch trees. LOL about the snow splatters

OH MY!! So gorgeous. We went along the same path but mine looks like a beginner sketch compared to your evolved snowy scene. It's really awesome, Vicky.
