Simply CAS

Happy November! Can you believe it's here already?? Where is this year getting to? I sure as heck don't know, but every time I blink, another week or two has passed!

Today I have a project I made while checking out some of the galleries on Splitcoaststampers earlier this evening (Wednesday night.) I saw this card and thought it would be fun to try it using Creative Inspirations Paints.

I wanted to make a winter scene, so I took some time with my colours. To make the gradation of the ground, through the snow and up into the winter night, I used 7 different paints. In order, from bottom to top, I used Mocha Latte, Silver Frost (just a tiny hint), Winter Frost, Blue Ice, Tanzanite, Sapphire, and Denium. I don't think the light is good enough for the photograph to show just how shimmery and wintery the card really appears, but it looks like snow sparkling on a moonlit night.
