The shape of this image made me think of a panel of stained glass. So I did faux stained glass technique. I stamped the deer and tree image first. Then I stamped the background from MFP set called CRACKED HELLO. I then took a variety of blue and green markers (crayola) and colored onto a plastic acrylic folder. I sprayed the scribbles with water and painted the image. The crackles help give a defined area to color. I tried not to color any two crackles that were next to each the same color. When I was done, I made an easel card base. I added burlap, lace and a button then added handmade quilled pine cones and punched branches. I added some styrofoam snow to the pine cones and branches. I used the sentiment from another MFP set called PINE BOUGHS
