CARD DETAILS
I started working on this card by stamping the sentiment on the Desert Storm panel cut to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2″ with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink. Next, I dry embossed the Holly Branch folder on the stamped panel and went over the raised areas with a white pigment ink pad barely pressing the pad onto the paper. I love this technique.
Using a wide white pen I added faux snow onto the large lettering. I also used a smaller size white pen to add white snow dots. Lastly, I heat embossed the “Happy Holidays” in white embossing powder on red cardstock and foam mounted that onto the card for a pop of red.

11 Листопада, 2021This is so beautiful! I saw your card earlier today and didn’t realize you did the “snow” with a white pen – I was sure it was embossed somehow. Love it!

11 Листопада, 2021Sheer elegance Yana. I’ve tried putting a white pigment ink on top of a design, but inevitably I smear it onto the paper as well & spoiling it. You must have such a light touch. I just love this look.

Kathy Raker
12 Листопада, 2021Beautiful card! I never have much luck swiping ink pad over raised area. Either too much, not enough or get ink where I don’t want it. I will need to try applying it another way, maybe just using my finger instead. I love the snow on letters.
Lauryne Cunningham

Carol E. Wortman
12 Листопада, 2021I love cards that have white ink and gel accents and never make them because I always smudge the ink. Wondering if you used a heat gun to dry the pigment ink, and have messed up gel pen using a heat gun. Gosh I love this card which feels impossible to me.
Linda Price
