I love to work with the new 6"x6" templates from TCW and "Liquitex Light Modeling paste. They create such a pretty "dimensional" background and are very easy to create. This is the same template Joan used in her workshops. I used Distress Ink to color the background then added the Modeling paste over it. Once it was dry, I added a little more Distress Ink to lightly color the paste. The die cut tree is one of the new Memory Box dies called "Snowflake Tree". In the upper corner I added a Spellbinder "Parisian Accent" to go under the burgundy silk bow. The bow was created with the Bow Easy. Kaiser Craft pearls were added to complete the card.
All these products can be purchased at Joan's Gardens. For those of you who don't know, Joan only charges you exactly what it costs her for postage and most items in her store are priced less than retail. You can always save by shopping with Joan.
