My base is the Heavy Whisper White. I used a narrow matte of Pacific Point (one of my favourite blues) and then adhered the image panel. I stamped the image on Mixed Media paper using my new Tsukineko VersaFine Clair Morning Mist ink. I love the less intense lines around the images and think it looks a lot more natural than black ink. For the colouring I turned to my Derwent Watercolour pencils and AquaPainter. I love the results, don't you?
I used a brownish green to ground them and show the shadows. The sentiment was the hardest part of the card this time. I knew what I wanted to say but wasn't certain I actually had a stamp which said anything that was close to what I had in mind. This was from the Stampin' Up! set, Wonderful Moments. I think it works perfectly.
I took this close-up to show the shimmery light around the candle flame. It's understated but shows a pretty, soft glow. Perfect for this adorable scene.
Have fun checking out our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge and I hope you'll link your creation before the deadline on Monday, February 1st, 2021.
