I needed to make my sister a birthday card and she likes the larger cards so I made a 5 x 7. It accomodates my image perfectly.
I used masking fluid with a splatter brush to make some falling snow, then inked my stamp. Using the MISTI, I stamped each leaf and the berries/branches separately. I then used my blender pen to move the ink around to cover each one. Afterwards, I used a w/c brush to w/c the background. It was then time to remove the masking fluid, stamp a sentiment, and add a few stamped snowflakes.

Ooooh Sis is going to absolutely LOVE this!
The watercolour effect is so pretty, it looks like you're looking out a window and the berries are peeping back at you through a winter storm.
