Love this challenge almost as much as I love my white gel pens! For this one, instead of just using it for dots, I used it to look like snow on the little trees in the distance, to add the stars in the sky and to highlight snow in the foreground.
I started out by stamping the trees and scenery in the bg, masking where I needed to. The deer are the only thing added; they were stamped, colored slightly and attached w/ thin foam tape.
Using a wavy cut piece of scratch paper, I sponged in the snow mounds using the soft gray and the lightest blue from the Kpad. I also used this to brayer in the sky, masking the hill below. I sponged the darkest blue all around the edges, then added white gel pen highlights and the 3 dots on each corner of the b.blue mat. The greeting is stamped directly on the piece and white gel pen accents the tops while I used a soft gray marker to shadow underneath. TFL
