Red & Green.......Green & Red!

 Jingle Belles have an awesome-ly Christmasy challenge!  To use primarily red and green on your entries!

I created this card by ink blending a panel of watercolor paper with different shades of red distress inks (festive berries, worn lipstick and picked raspberries).  I then took a Unity Stamp Co. background stamp called Christmas all around and sprayed it with water....pressed the wet stamp surface onto my inked panel and pulled off some of the ink to create this reverse stamped image!  Flicked some diluted white acrylic paint on top and tied on some twine.  Stamped the car and "be merry" both from Unity's Winter Shake Up set.  I colored with Tombow art markers and fussy cut them both out.

I am also entering this into the BYSHC Christmas in July Hop!
