I never uploaded this card last week, and I was even the "lovely guest star" for the challenge - doh! The challenge was "Deck the Halls", as in a deck of cards, so I used a card from a deck I'm currently working on for the Twelve Days of Christmas. I colored my image with the reinker watercolor technique. I don't have all of these inks, though, so I just "smoosh" the inkpad onto an acrylic block (which serves as a palette) and paint away! I added a poinsettia stamp for the suit and a #1 from an alphabet set for the number.

Well isn’t this the sweetest thing. I really like the partridge on the playing card. It is a really different look for a Christmas card, but you checked all the traditional boxes with the colors, so it works so well!
