Snow in July
Sometimes it's good to lean back. Imagine chilly winds, while hot sun streams through studio windows.
Papertrey Ink's newest demo prodded me to test watercolor effects with stamping. This was the best result, worked on smooth Bristol. Spritzing the tree stamp before printing gave the image a kind of mystery glow. So I moved the scene to night, using silver embossed snowflake images as resist for night sky watercolor layer. At the center, JOY and the wee feather stamps, from Papertrey. The tree image is from Indigoblu. And of course, a deer, standing in the snow.

What a lovely effect you got! Dreamy winter night, with gorgeous snow and snowflakes! And the red 'joy' is a standout for your holiday card!
This is really a great card. I love all the elements that just seem to work really well together. The "joy" sentiment pulls it all together. Really terrific.
