Christmas in July. Illustrative coloring

This card was inspired by Daniel West's Illustrative coloring class during Card Maker Success Summit.

I stamped the bunny and deer first, masked them, stamped the pine trees, then masked the edges of the front panel. I blended Speckled Egg distress oxide over the sky and Iced Spruce under the trees. I wish the "snow" was whiter, but I also wanted the border to stand out. I brushed white Wink of Stella inside the star and over the snow. I also added stickles under the animals and over the snow. The star was embossed with Brutus Monroe Sterling EP. The animals were "splotchily" colored with copics in class. I don't have copics so I did what I could with my Bic Mark Its. I used white enamel accents appied with a stylus for snow in the sky and on the trees.
The panel is mounted to the card front with foam tape.

Stamps : "Woodland Cottage" Scenic Stamps I got free with a magazine purchase a few years ago.

Just one of this design!

TFL! Thanks again Daria for this challenge!
