Cold as Ice Christmas card

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Cold as Ice".

Time flies so fast, in less than two weeks it's Christmas time. This is my last Christmas card! First I started with Forest Collage Paper and Soft Matte gel. Such a great first layer and starting point. But it's also a bit bold. So I toned it down into the background by applying a thin layer of White Gesso.

 

With Distress Paint Peeled Paint, Forest Moss and Barn Door I colored some images of the Collage Paper. To bring it to the background also, I applied a thin layer of White Gesso over it. To give the card some texture I used the Sparkle stencil with Texture Paste. I gave the Woodlands a green color with Rustic Wilderness.
