Oh Christmas Tree...

A bright winter night:


We have a colour challenge for you at 52CCT this week:

I broke out my beautiful tree die and made a very simple card. The tree does all the work again against that blue. 

The background is made with Danube blue ink sponged on and then slowly, slowly spritzed with water to give a galaxy effect. I hold the spray bottle over the bath, spray and then wave the card through the falling drops. Fine drops are best. Patience is needed if you like the fine look rather than large splodges. That happens to me often and it's a different look! 
I used a tiny amount of Perfect Pearls in the water so there is a little sheen. I think I could have used more. 

Come and join in with us and you will see that we are also having at DT Call. Fancy joining the team?

Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day. x
