Hello! It's day 2 of sneak's for My Creative Time. Today I am sneaking From Our Family To Yours. I used the sweet little tree from that set to make my background paper. I first inked my paper with shabby shutters distress ink. Dried that completely. And over that, stamped the trees with embossing ink and heat embossed with clear powder. Then over that I inked with forest moss distress ink. I sprayed the background with perfect pearls and water in a mini mister to add sparkle.
The sentiment is also from that set. I heat embossed it with white powder.
