Snowy Pine Branch and Cone Card

AJVD, Kecia Waters, Pine Branches, Season's Greetings
I woke up to a dusting of snow yesterday.  It was the perfect day to stay indoors and stamp.  I was inspired by the pine tree along the side of my house and tried to capture its beauty with this card.  Kecia Waters on the blog today.

Using a circle cut from watercolor paper with the "Circle Backdrop Die Set", I sponged some Distress Ink Tumbled Glass onto half of the circle.  Using my MISTI to do some multiple stamping, I inked the pine branches from the stamp set "Pine Branches" with a bright green dye ink and stamped.  I then inked that same pine branch with a dark green Tombow marker and a brown Tombow marker.  

I stamped the pine cone image, also from "Pine Branches" with Distress Ink Walnut Stain.  I then used some brown Prismacolor pencils to color the pine cone.  I took my paint brush and tapped some Copic White onto the branches and cone to appear like snow.

I scored around a square panel of the watercolor paper. I stamped the sentiment from the stamp set "Christmas Lantern" with Versafine Onyx Black.
