IC512, Inspired by Red

Photo Details

Poster: k dunbrook

hi there,
Here is my card for the IC inspired by the Osnat Fine Art Etsy site and here is the painting that inspired my card:
https://www.etsy.com/listing/2073732...home_active_24

First Christmas card for 2015!
I began by rubbing Distress inks onto my card front then I rubbed water through a stencil for interest and splattered with white paint. While that dried, I did a loose watercolor on the poinsettia and added some black pearls to the center. Lastly, I embossed the edges with white powder and did the sentiment that way too.

Thanks for looking,

For being a mostly red card, this certainly does not lack interest, Karen! Beautifully Created~
