I started this page by adding a puddle of forest green watercolor to the left side of my 12" x 12" watercolor paper, base page and splattering it with that same shade of watercolor, as well as pink, red, and aqua watercolors. I then smeared Peeled Paint, Barn Door, and Spun Sugar Distress Inks through a circle template before splattering everything once again, but this time with Pure Black and Titanium White, acrylic paints. That set the stage for my photo, which was set atop a bed of the Let It Snow printed paper, hand-cut in the shape of a banner, as well as a couple of Christmas Favs 3x8 Pocket Cards, hand-cut in the same manner, and an "oh deer" Christmas Words Word Flags Cut-Apart.
All of the hand-cut banners were anchored with silver-threaded, straight, machine stitching and topped with my photo, which was matted with white cardstock; backed with a snippet of cheesecloth for additional texture; and wrapped, three times, with a length of Baker's Twine, tied in a bow. It was also embellished with a "spread christmas cheer" 'Tis the Season Flair Button, backed with a tangle of silver thread...
and flanked with Snow & Hot Cocoa Die-Cut trees. The tree to the left of the photo was further dressed up with a "25" Merry Christmas Circle Cut-Apart, as well as a Wood Partridge Vintage Sticker, backed with white cardstock, hand-cut out, and popped up with foam tape.
A trio of additional Merry Christmas Circle Cut-Aparts trail off to the right side of the design, amidst a scattering of Gift Wrap, Tree Topper, and Pink Petals Sequins, which can be found throughout the design, along with a half dozen silver metallic Snowflakes Vellum Die Cuts.
A couple of "MERRY CHRISTMAS" & "UNDER THE TREE" Nice List Word Stickers...
and a Fawn Flair Button complete the look.
Don't forget to add the December 2018 Freebie Santas to your carts this month with any $35 or more purchase.
