Snowflake Strings

Twinchie Chris Mouse

Chris Mouse by Sherry West

Snowflake Strings background

I stamped Chris Mouse onto a square of white card and then onto a Twinchie.  I masked both images before colouring the background with blue distress ink.

I removed the masks and then coloured the images by watercolouring with Izink pens and highlighting direct with the pens.

On the background blue square, once dry I stamped with Snowflake Strings and white ink.

On the Twinchie I covered with embossing ink and 3 layers of Amazing Glaze thick embossing powder.

The white layer is snowflake strings stamped and embossed in white onto striped vellum.

Christmas Angelica

Angelica is an ideal image for Christmas or non-Christmas cards.
