Mustesormi: PBSC: December

December challenge at Penny Black Saturday Challenge is live! The theme for this month is, as always, Anything Goes with the optional theme of Christmas.

I opted for the optional theme and made a CAS Christmas card. The stamp I used is called Berry Beauty by Penny Black. I coloured directly onto the stamp with my Karin markers and stamped the image several times adding colour where I wanted it. Lastly, I spritzed the stamp with water and stamped once again to make the colours blend. I also went through the image with a damp watercolour brush to further blend the colours. I then masked the edges of the panel and sponged some Distress Oxide inks to it. The colours I used is one of my favourite blends, Salvaged Patina with a bit of Frayed Burlap on top of it. I also splattered a bit of white watercolour on top of the stamped and inked panel. The sentiment comes from the sentiment set Feeling of Christmas.
