I made a 2nd card for todays inspiration challenge, choosing a white deer ornament. Awhile back Priscilla (catluvr2) made a card that I fell in love with and I attempted to create a BG that would come close to the one she used for her Starlight card. I stamped some snowflakes on the mixed media paper using versamark, embossed with clear ep, then applied some stormy sky distress ink, embossed some flakes again, applied some faded jeans and embossed flakes again. Then I used chipped sapphire distress ink, to darken, trying to leave some lighter areas. When everything was dry I ironed off the shine of the embossed flakes and splattered on some Finetec silver metallic watercolor. The deer and sentiment were cut from white cardstock and the deer popped up with foam tape. The panel was attached to a white card base. Here's my inspiration. https://www.christmastraditions.com/...CCOXM4979.html
And here's Priscilla's gorgeous card that inspired me, also.
