This is for WT77 challenge to use chipboard. I got to play with chipboard at convention using craft ink, and also stamping with bg images. I wanted to see if I could paint on it with the reinkers successfully and to create a scene on it. I stamped my images with Stazon. I painted the trees with old olive reinkers, and then painted the snowman with white craft ink. I cut out a mask for the star a little larger than the image so I could protect it while sponging down buckaroo blue for the sky. Then I painted the star with mustard and then removed the mask and sponged barely banana around the star area to create the appearance of a glow. I then used a dauber to put down the white craft ink on the ground cover and used the Petal Pushers seeds stamp to make the falling snow. I heat embossed with white detail EP. I ran the border edge of the chipboard around on buckaroo blue to cover.

You never cease to amaze me. I used to do Folk Art Painting and your work always reminds me of that. One of these days I'll order the watercolor minis and try my hand with your technique!
Thanks for sharing your projects!
