Tim Holtz/Sizzix: Peace
For this card, I started by die-cutting the sentiment “peace” and the poinsettias from the Holiday Classic die set out of Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I then watercolored them with Distress Watercolor Pencils. I kept the die-cut pieces inlaid into the cardstock I cut them out of, so it was easier to watercolor the smaller pieces. I stacked together multiple “peace” sentiments to give them a bit of dimension.
For the background, I did a little watercoloring with the Peacock Feathers Distress Spritz. This added a pretty shimmer to the background. I splattered a little bit of the Peacock Feathers Distress Spritz, some water, and a touch of gold paint, too. I trimmed the backgrounds down to 4″ x 5.25″ and matted them onto red cardstock.
I adhered the poinsettias and the word piece to the backgrounds. I then added some Distress Rock Candy to the word “peace”. Lastly, I added some gems for some added bling.

I had so much fun creating this card, and I hope it has inspired you, and maybe it has “jennabled” you a bit to go shopping! I will be back soon with even more ideas!
