How Silently

After I made the Snow Laden Tree a week or so ago I wanted to make a similar card, but one that I could make more quickly and demonstrate easily.  This is what I came up with.  I have used some of the same techniques but there is definitely less sponging and less embossing steps.  I stamped the snowflakes first in versamark and embossed in clear e.p.  I then sponged with bashful blue and brocade blue, taking care to build up the sponging toward the right hand side.  Once I was happy with the sponging I stamped the tree in navy and a few snowflakes in brocade blue.  Lastly I stamped the sentiment and embossed it in white.

Supplies:

Stamps: Season of Friendship, Wondrous Gift
Inks: Brocade Blue, Versamark, Bashful Blue
Cardstock:  Brocade Blue, Night of Navy , Whisper White
Also: Clear and white embossing powders, sponges
