Across the Miles

 Absolutely LOVE colouring right onto a rubber stamp with my distress watercolour pencils!

2025 Christmas Card Count: 6 + 4 = 10

Here I started by making a full page background with Peacock distress spray stain, Salvaged Patina distress oxide, Ominous Twilight distress mica stain, and Frozen Fog distress mica stain on distress watercolour cardstock. I added some water droplets and dried the page. Next, I cut it into 4 A2 sized panels so that I could make 4 cards!

I coloured up the snowman with distress watercolour pencils drawn right onto the rubber stamp. I added in some more colour to the toque, scarf, and heart and then re-stamped. I added the Snow Flurries backdrop, a snowflake, some rock candy glitter, and then the sentiment on top of a banner to complete the card. Here is my tutorial video:
