The images from the Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2021 Release for Simon Says Stamp were stamped on a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" panel of watercolor cardstock with Versafine Onyx Black Ink. The tree was stamped more than once to fill the area along the bottom edge.
With the solid moon masking stencil in place, Prize Ribbon and Black Soot was inked around the design with small blending brushes. No masking required! The Distress Ink used to paint the design will "hide" any imperfections!
The moon was painted with a light wash of Scattered Straw Distress Ink and water.
The trees were painted with Pine Needles, Peeled Paint, and Rustic Wilderness Distress Inks. I pressed the ink onto my glass mat and picked up the color with a damp paintbrush and painted the color onto the design.
Santa's Sleigh and Santa were painted with Aged Mahogany and Candied Apple Distress Inks. The reindeer were painted with Ground Espresso and Gathered Twigs Distress Inks. I pressed the ink onto my glass mat and picked up the color with a damp paintbrush and painted the color onto the design.
The moon was stenciled with the second moon mask from the Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2021 Release for Simon Says Stamp using Pumice Stone Distress Ink and then another layer of Scattered Straw Distress Ink.
The entire background was splatted with White Gouache watered down with a bit of water.
Once completely dry (I let mine sit overnight) the "sparkly image" from the Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2021 Release for Simon Says Stamp was stamped with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. A greeting from the set was stamped with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The trees were finished with Glossy Accents and Prisma Glitter. The sleigh was finished with a layer of Glossy accents for shine!
