CMN, Adventskalender, luke 12

I have a new card to show you today and I also have a little Copic trick for you :)

Today is my turn to inspire you over at Copic Marker Norge 

and you will find this post in Norvegian there.

 

I love to use Opaque White to create snow on my images and I will show you how I do it today.

 

You need:

A coloured image, Opaque white, and an old toothbrush.

I have used the wonderful Christmas Lantern Marci from La La Land Craft

and coloured her in these colours:

Skin: E21-51-50, E93 for cheeks

Hair: E33-55-53-51-50

Jacket and hat: E47-44-43-42

Ribbon, lantern and dress: W5-3-1-0

Light around lantern: YR23-21, Y17 and At You spica Gold

Dip your toothbrush in the Opaque white, be careful so it wont drip on your motiv.

With one finger on the brush, just go over your motiv and "splash" carefully until you are happy with the result.

Repeat until it is snowy enough :)

I always makes a few little bigger dots with a toothpick, it looks more natural that way.

 

My Marci is done and looks so cute standing there in the snowstorm with her lantern ;)

I am sorry the pictures aren't the best.. but I hope you get an idea!

I have used the tut I made earlier for CMN and covered my motiv with UTEE for a more Vintage look. You will find that tut here if you have missed it

This is how I have made my card today:

 

Image: Christmas Lantern Marci from LaLaLand bought at Kreativ Scrapping

Papers from Maja design

I have used my new Spellbinder frame (♥Christine♥) called Floral ovals and the fantastic Tree line from TH

Decorations are bells, swirls and pearlberries, buttons, pearls and seam binding

You will find everything (and a lot more!) at Kreativ Scrapping

 

Have a lovely winterday everybody ♥

Lots of hugs
