Peace & Joy

Hi everyone!

New Saturday and new challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. 

This week is a color challenge and we would like to see the following color combo on your cards

RED - WHITE - AQUA

Using an old credit card, I applied white and turquoise acrylic paints to Bristol paper. With the credit card and a piece of corrugated cardboard, I tried to add texture into the still wet colors.  After drying, which was very quick, I cut the part of the sheet I liked best to use as a background. Stenciled the stars with texture paste, spritzed the panel with white ink and adhered washi tape to the left edge.

The bird and the fir trees I recycled from the washi tape packaging. The second fir had advertising print, so I flipped it over and covered it with washi tape. The ground is made of torn washi tape. The sentiment is from Lora Bylora. 

I hope you like it as much as I do!

Have Fun!!
