Winter Dawn - GDT Project 2021

 Hello everyone 

My last project for this GDT  slot is a winter theme using the beautiful Winter Dawn Stamp (UA6SP0525). I have used the other three quite a lot as they are very pretty images, but Winter Dawn has been neglected for some reason.😃

So here she is.

The frame is 25cm. one I had in my stash. Just right for the 15cm. heart to fit in the centre.

The heart is a good quality birch wood which has been sanded to a lovely smooth finish. This is suitable for stamping directly onto the wood without prepping it first, using a suitable inkpad.

Some inkpads will bleed, which you don't want. I have used VersaFine Blue on mine and it is useful to use a drier pad rather than a new squidgy one😀. StazOn works well too.

The image has been coloured with water colour pencils and white gel pen, for the flakes.

It is edged with tiny beads to finish it.

The background sheet has the wax resist technique again , (see last weeks post) and then over stamped with snowflakes which have been white embossed.

The edging is finished  with little pearls.  

I hope you have enjoyed this project and revisit this lovely series of stamps.

Happy crafting to you all and thankyou for visiting Chocolate Baroque's blog.
