Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Tall Trees SS44 Stencil" Winter Artist Trading Card

 

I'm on a roll with my creativity today, with another Artist Trading Card. I coated a page from an old book with diluted white acrylic paint.  At the base of the card, I made it a little thicker.  Once dry, I glued it on to a piece of card and rounded the corners.

On another old book page, I positioned the Tracy Evans Boutique Designs "Tall Trees Stencil - SS44" and applied two shades of Distress Oxide Inks through the stencil, replicating the process three times.  The shades of ink I used are:  Lucky Clover and Peacock Feathers. I then fussy cut the shapes.

Using some ink I had on a small blending brush and the torn edge of a piece of paper,  I create the landscape, I repeated the process with some grey and dark blue ink for the sky.  Ihen glued the trees into position. I added some white areas against the left side of the trees to replicate snow.

I splattered white paint from a fan shaped paint brush, to create a blizzared look. The paint I used is Dr Ph.Martin's white bleed proof paint. Finally, using Versaifne Clair "Morning MIst" grey ink, I stamped the "peace" sentiment, which is part of the Tracy Evans "Christmas Wishes - TE22" stamp set.
