Hi everyone, it's time for Group of Cardmakers technique for May. This month we are doing some direct to paper inking
Videos: Serene Forest Cards by Kristina Werner (13:22)
I swiped distress inks to cover the card and also blended to get rid of any hard edges. I splattered some white ink and water onto the background and also used my white gel pen to add some extra stars in the sky. The trees are a die cut and Santa and his sleigh is a stamp. The sentiment is a BetterPress sentiment.

This is very atmospheric Christine and I love the colours and added diluted white paint and white gel pen stars added to the sky and the pretty silhouette trees and Santa and his sleigh look great..the blue on white die cut sentiment finishes it perfectly too...a beautiful card. x
LOVE the saturated colours of your night sky, Christine. Beautiful with the silhouette images of Santa and his sleigh, and the trees. xx
The deep dark night sky colors are marvelous and the silhouettes look perfect with them!
Love the dark night sky, the die-cut trees and little Santa sleigh give a great effect.

That made a perfect sky for Santa and his reindeer to fly through, Christine! I love how the splattered water and ink added a snowy feel!
The night sky was stunning, dear Christine. The perfect backdrop for the dark forest over which Santa travels in his sleigh. A wonderful Christmas card.

This couldn't be a more perfect night sky! The blues are fabulous and the contrast with the black is striking!
That sky is amazing. Well done xx
So beautiful! An amazing sky executing this simple technique.
