I added a layer of water to watercolour card then sprinkled Tonic Studios Shimmer Powder and blended it across the card.  I put to one side to dry.  Once thoroughly dry I added a watercolour sun to the top right.  

I coloured the mantles of the Penny Black trees with a light green Karin Brush Markers Pro and stamped.  I dried the ink then added medium green to parts of the mantles, stamped and dried for a second time.  I added a darker green to the mantles and stamped, I coloured the trunks of the trees and land below with dark brown Karin Brush Markers Pro and stamped.  I left to completely dry.  

I stamped the greeting with Pinecone Versafine Clair then finished with Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops.   Back soon x
