Let's start with my FAVORITE! I started by using Distress Inks in Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon, and Chipped Sapphire to make a watercolor background. I added some spatters as well. I wanted it to look like a stormy background to fit my sentiment. I used various images from the GORGEOUS Serenity is Peace stamp set! I used Heat and Stick embossing powder to foil the sentiment and branches and I used Copics to color the girl.
Here's another one that's similar to the other, but much simpler. I used a teal foil on the tree background stamp and gold foil for the sentiment. I colored the girl in a similar way to I did for the previous card and assembled everything together.
Don't you just LOVE this little gnome?! His name is Peppermint Mocha (also the name of the stamp set)! I love to color gnomes like Santa! I used a stencil and some Deco Foil transfer gel to create the background and added the gold embossed sentiment and wreath as accents.
