I needed a couple of Christmas-themed cards that didn't actually say "Merry Christmas" on them, to send to friends who won't be feeling very merry this Christmas because of losing loved ones recently.
Because I'm not very good at watercolour wash backgrounds, I thought I'd try watercolouring the image and sponging the background.
I stamped and watercoloured the image, then masked it, and sponged the background with a couple of shades of blue Distress ink. I splattered with watered-down white acrylic paint but I'd watered it down too much so wasn't happy with the splatter I got, so added some white Frantage and heated from underneath. I die cut the focal image and added it to a dry embossed background.
