F4A406 = Into the Woods We Go - something wood on your card - wood embellishment, trees, etc.
I have a bit of a stash of wooden snowflakes so thought this was a good opportunity to use one. I need a few horse-themed Christmas cards and thought a wooden snowflake kind of went well with the outdoors / country idea of a horse.
I kept the F4A theme of "into the woods" by having the horse racing towards the woods.
I splattered some liquid frisket on watercolour paper and stamped my horse and the evergreen trees. I used a brown ink for the horse that is close in colour to the wooden snowflake. After stamping him, I took a waterbrush and the same ink and filled in the rest of the horse's body
Then I tore a rough edge out of scrap paper to mask the snow line, and did a loose watercolour wash for the sky. I added the simple sentiment at the bottom and the wooden snowflake at the top. When I rubbed off the liquid frisket, the snow was revealed.
I used a brown cardbase - in real life, it tones in better with the brown of the horse and snowflake than it does in the photo.
