Joan Ervin gave us a new technique to stamp with water. Her tutorial gives all the details. My attempt was not so successful since you can't see the tree stamped with water, but it is there! : ) I used that old spattering technique of using a toothbrush and watered down acrylic paint for the snow. The whole card has a shimmery look that does not show up either. Are you getting the idea that this is NOT the most successful card in the world?!
The CAS challenge was to use these colors today.
Soft Pink
Old Olive
Kraft
White

Don't know what you were trying to achieve, in my opinion you knocked this one out of the ballpark! It's gorgeous and I don't care what you didn't do, I'm impressed with what you DID do with this card. Lovely, lovely, lovely!!!!

Sallie, sometimes you are tooooo hard on yourself! This is quite beautiful! Your background is stunning, and it has the look of mist and snow in a magical forest!!

I think you knew what was in my head originally. How did you do that? This rocks. Just gorgeous. Mine ended up taking an entirely different direction, but I may go back and try to CASE this in some simple way. Love it, Sallie.
