Holiday Lane — Sneak Peek #3!

Published by Sherry Cheever at 4:30 am under Christmas, Holidays, Impression Obsession, Inque Boutique, JBWW Challenges, Lizzie Anne Designs, Spellbinders, Techniques, Watercolor

Good morning! We are into Day 3 of the Lizzie Anne Designs’ Summer Release Sneak Peek! Don’t forget to visit Tricia’s Blog, Letters from Lizzie, and Meridith’s Blog, Little Treasures. Not only will they have some sneak peeks for you, but they also will be linking other Design Team members who do. This is the last sneak peek I have for you. I’m off to Chicago and CHA this morning! I’ll be blogging from there the rest of the week.

Today’s card is made with the new set, Holiday Lane. I’ve only used one of the images from the set, but I can envision a fabulous street scene. Once I’m back from CHA, I’ll be working on that for you!

I stamped the image on watercolor paper and painted the image with reinkers. To make some snow, I dabbed on Tulip White Puffy Paint and then heat set. I pulled out some of my favorite holiday paper, BasicGrey Figgy, for the background. I couldn’t resist using the sentiment “Up on the housetop . . .” because of Santa’s sleigh on the roof and his boots caught in the chimney!

Stamps: Holiday Lane from Lizzie Anne Designs
Paper: Canson 120 lb Watercolor; SU Soft Sky and Basic Gray; BasicGrey Figgy
Ink: Tsukineko Brilliance Graphite Black; Ranger Tim Holtz Weathered Wood, Broken China, Mustard Seed, Fired Brick, Shabby Shutters, Peeled Paint and Faded Denim Distress, Archival Jet Black
Accessories: Spellbinders Square Nestabilities; Word Window Punch; Ranger Distress Reinkers; Tulip White Puffy Paint; Water brush; Tsukineko Sponge Dauber; Mounting Tape; Brads; Ribbon

I hope you have a great day, and maybe I’ll have pictures with Tim Holtz tomorrow! Oh yeah . . . . while everyone else is taking the Copic Class, Jeanne and I will be in with Tim Holtz!

Sherry, this is too cute! I love little Santa’s feet sticking out of the chimney! The puffy paint is a nice touch as well. Hey, How’d you do the layering with the Word window punch? I need to learn how to do that! Have fun at CHA!

I can almost feel the winter chill when I look at this beauty (oh, wait…hubby turned the air too high…lol). Your card is beautiful, and I love how realistic your snow looks, Sherry!!

That does it! I’m staying up for the release, credit card handy. Tell Jeanne, Kittie & the gang hi from me and I for one can’t wait to see your street scene since I plan to make one when I get this set in my inky hands.
