Crackerbox Stamps Peace Card

Happy holidays crafty friends! I hope you are all doing well and enjoying time with your family and friends. Today I have a simple card I made with some ink blending for a peaceful winter scene.

I started by creating a circle stencil with some plastic to do some light ink blending. I used Bristol Smooth paper, my go to paper when blending ink, and used a blending brush with Salty Ocean Distress Ink. I added a little Wild Honey Distress ink for a moon glow in the background. Then I used the Swirl Christmas Thick stamp and Versafine Clair ink in Twilight to add trees in the background. I stamped the middle tree first and then stamped the side trees after stamping off some ink on a scratch piece of paper to make a lighter image in the background. I think the Spruce Tree would also be a perfect stamp for this but I didn’t have it in my stash. 

I stamped the Small Buck and Doe set in Versafine Clair Nocturne and added a little snow highlights on their back and the trees with a white gel pen. I used a swirl stencil to add some ink blending around the circle in Kitsch Flamingo. I lightly spritzed my background and lifted some ink off to look like falling snow. To finish my card I used Peace Written stamp to finish my card.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful and peaceful Christmas season.
