Swirling Snow

Still playing at the Hero Arts Challenge this week which is to use unexpected colors for a holiday card.

I had to purchase a re-inker for my broken china and at the same time I picked up a re-inker for my purple inkpad too. This background started from mixing those two together.

1. Drip blue and purple re-inker onto acetate/transperancy.
2. Spritz with water.
3. Stamp snowflakes onto white cardstock using versamark. Heat emboss with clear embossing powder.
4. Lay stamped background into inks. Lift and see if any spots need color added.
5. Create additional backgrounds to use up the ink. :)
6. Stamp swirls using versamark onto the stamped background after it is completely dry.
7. Heat emboss using incadescent embossing powder. (You can't see it in the picture but there is a beautiful incandescent sheen on the background).

The rest is very straightforward. I stamped the swirls on the plastic snowflake using StaZon ink.
