IC375 Snowy Village
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 I found some beautiful musical paper bird clips, which I was going to go with. But then I spotted this little village and it reminded me of a stamp Bridget Finlay sent me which I still had to pluck up the nerve to attempt colouring. (The link is broken so I can't link just to the item, but it's the 1st left, 2nd row on that page). And then I was able to fit in Wendy's Blue and Brown challenge from yesterday, as a bonus.
A2 kraft base. Sentiment is ODBD, I added scoring and a pair of snowflakes cut from the same card as the matting layer, with Picket Fence Stickles and tiny brown pearls.
Papermania image stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks plus a couple of H2Os for the snow. (stormy sky, chipped sapphire, broken china, old paper, antique linen, frayed burlap, rusty hinge, walnut stain, wild honey, pumice stone, iced spruce, brushed corduroy, vintage photo).

Oh my goodness, Sabrina, this is gorgeous! You watercolored this beautifully, I love the little shadows you added! So perfectly done in kraft and shades of blue, you've really nailed all three challenges. Love this!

What a fun image! I love the variety of blues and browns you used, too, and your shadowing. :)
