#5 Watercolor Greeting

Today's sketch comes from December 2015:

Here's what I did originally and I still really love this card!

For this year's car, I went back to the horizontal orientation of the sketch. I saw someone else color the Merry Music DSP and loved the idea! I inked up my brayer in Emerald Envy and rolled it across my paper a few times. To add some more interest, I stamped on a few snowflakes in Emerald Envy. For my main greeting, I colored my circle with my aqua painter and Real Red reinker. After it dried, I stamped my main greeting. I love the tone on tone look of both the background and the sentiment. Finally I added a silver snowflake and some silver enamel shapes.
