we are starting a new Mixed Media Challenge over on the STAMPlorations Blog and this is my very christmasy creation:
- color a wooden tree with teal acrylic paint
 - apply Prima Marketing Platinum Crackle Paste through the ARTplorations Oh my Stars! stencil and Texture Paste through the ARTplorations Holly Background stencil
 - let this dry thoroughly - I actually left it over night
 - add shading with Distress Ink Hickory Smoke and a Mini Ink Blending Tool
 - color the holly leaves and berries with Derwent Inktense Pencils and a damp watercolor brush
 - add snowflake splatters with watered-down white acrylic paint
 - now you can stick little fairy lights through the holes and have a wonderful Christmas decoration
 
I can't wait to see your creations in the gallery.
Hugs,

This is lovely, Tanja! Jo x
