Peace on Earth

Hi everyone.  Today I'm sharing my latest Christmas card.  It is a CASE (copy and share everything) of a beautiful card made by my friend, Hilary.  I just loved her card and the technique she used for making the beautiful night sky (Direct to Paper Inking).  Here's a link to Hilary's card post.  Thank you for the inspiration, dear friend!

I used the stamp pad to go direct to paper with three colours for the background (Mowed Lawn, Rustic Wilderness, Unchartered Mariner).  Because of the saturated ink colours, this background is very bold and dramatic.  Adding in the black die-cut trees and white die-cut sentiment creates even more contrast.  I finished the card with simple white acrylic ink splatters.  This was so much fun and easy to do. :)
