Thanks Rox, for hosting another great sketch challenge! I stamped the main image on wc paper with Versafine Onyx black. I colored the image with markers (Tombow Pens) and spread the ink using water on a wc brush. Highlighted with a white gel pen.
Made the candy cane paper with two sizes of candy cane stamps, embossed with clear and colored with a red gel pen. The paper is a shimmery glossy yummy paper! Used 2 shades of brown to distress all the edges and then embossed with gold ep.
The tree ornaments have both a clear gel medium and glitter on them, though not much glitter. Lots of sewing and boy does thread quality ever make a difference! No problems sewing with 100% mercerized cotton thread!
Used three snowflake punches, two of them Martha Stewart (what great quality!) and one of them EK Success.
