ORANGE CHRISTMAS ANYONE?

Who said you had to stick to Red and Green for Christmas?  Not me!  I thought I would try out very untraditional colours on this card by using Brown and Orange!  I quite like how vbrant it turned out.  I also pulled out my brayer for this wee baby.  Michelle Zindorf has always inspired me and I would love to be as profficient with a brayer as she is.  You NEED to go check out her work.  The woman is a true artist.  For a long time though, I was too scared to learn how to use this wonderful tool and took up Sponging instead.  Don't get me wrong, this turned out to be a GOOD thing, as I found something I was good at and really loved to do.  However, we have to push ourselves to try new techniques, and I must say it is not nearly as difficult as I thought it would be!

I have used a brayer to get the graduation of colour you see in the sky.  Masking has helped me define the snow, add the trees so they appear in the distance, and given me "white space" to stamp my image of the reindeer.  I have also used my Colour Spritzer tool to add a bit of interest to the front panel.

If you would like to learn how to use a brayer to good effect, email ME and book a class.  I would love to show you how!
