Peace Card

Hello!!!  I hope you are doing well today!!!  I'm sharing a card using some new things from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I'm using the brand new Peace by designer Suzanne Cannon (also available on the Quietfire site) and some new stencils (Earth & Sky, Evergreen Grove, Snowstorm & Mound) by Susan Tierney-Cockburn. 

In the background I have Distress Collage Medium Crazing.  Once dry, it's sprayed with Distress Spray Stain.  Next, across the top half, is Texture Paste through the Snowstorm & Mounds stencil.  The trees trunks are stenciled onto white cardstock with Distress Ink, then the branches are done with white embossing paste, left to dry, the stencil put back on and color added with Distress Ink.  Once that was dry I used a white paint marker to add "snow".  Once dry it was trimmed around the the trees, cut across the bottom and silver glitter paste added.  Silver glitter paste was also added around the edges of the background.  The birds (earth & sky stencil) are added with black embossing paste.  Peace was cut from both white and green cardstock, adhered together and glued to the card as shown.
