Gnome Sweet Gnome A Split Card Scene

I thought it would be fun to use one of the gnomes with some of Jayne Nesorenko's scenes and create a split card.
Stamp the gnome holding a sign from the Barbara’s Güd Gnomes set onto the front of a 6” x 6” kraft card blank in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink and mask it up.
Add the wall and gate from the Jayne’s Church Winter Scene behind the gnome in the same ink. Remove the mask.
Add some white highlights using the B1 Perga Liner.
Add splashes of colour to the gnome using Faber-Castell Polychromos (#146, #140, #199).
Trim off the front of the card above the stamping.
Inside the card, add the large Cat Winter Scene (also by Jayne Nesterenko) in the same ink as before, so when the card is closed it looks like it is in the background.
Add further highlighting with the white Perga Liner.
Add Gnome Sweet Gnome to the sign using a black fine liner.  I could have added From Our Gnome to Yours using the stamp from the set.
To finish, add one of Barbara’s Christmas sentiments in the same ink as the rest of the card.
