First, stamp the images onto white cardstock.
Color them in (using any preferred medium) and trim out.
Trim a piece of watercolor cardstock for the background. Add color using Spectrum Aquas and a waterbrush.
Add Easy Tear Tape again, diagonally. Vary the sizes as needed.
Gently peel off the release tape and press down (silver side) onto the Aqua DecoFoil.
Adhere panel to a standard card base. Add palm tree using a Tape Runner. Add the Santa using 3D Foam Squares.
Trim off a piece of white thread and add to the front of the card. Heat emboss the sentiment and add over the thread using 3D Foam Squares.
Simple right?! Remember, this is a quick and easy technique to use to create a custom background with stunning results!
