Make it Monday #265: Layered Dry Brushing

I think Make it Monday Challenges are the best.  The ladies over at Papertrey come up with lots of creative ideas to help us improve or add new techniques to our arsenal.  This week was no different. Lizzie included acylic paint in her project today and I absolutely love how it turned out.  It's also something I never utilize in my cards so I appreciate this challenge.

Here's my take:


I started off by brushing watercolor cardstock in pale blue and green acrylic paints.


Spruce and Sprigs was used to create this little winter cluster.  


I layered the Christmas Cheer die cuts to add a little dimension.


Thanks for stopping by!
