Christmas Splatters

Photo Details

Poster: susanbri

CAS794 = Splatters

At one of my crafty Zoom get togethers, we used metallic watercolours to paint images on black watercolour paper. I loved it so thought I'd use the technique again.

I heat embossed the image with gold embossing powder on black watercolour paper, then coloured with my Twinkling H2Os. I added some gold splatters but decided it also needed a some white splatters to lighten it up a bit. I trimmed the panel, popped it up on fun foam on a gold card base, and added a Tim Holtz stick-on sentiment.

Your snow splatters are so sharp against that black background and the gold embossing on the holly adds a brilliant touch to the design.

Susan, this is a gorgeous Christmas card. Your shimmer watercolors on the black watercolor paper is just stunning. The added sparkle even takes it to a higher level. Beautiful beautiful work.
