Today is Christmas Eve and we are celebrating the birth of Jesus - enjoying family and friends and feeling thankful for all the joys and challenges of the year.
The main image is heat embossed on Crafter's Companion Watercolour Cardstock and colored with Spectrum Aqua Markers and Spectrum Noir Blendable Colored Pencils. The background was 'painted' with Spectrum Noir Sparkle Markers. I used the palette technique for both - scribbled color on a palette and used a dampened brush to pick up and spread color. To make clouds in the sky, I used a balled up paper towel to pull out color. A stencil brush came in handy to brush away tiny pieces of paper.
