December PTC: I'm Dreaming of a white Christmas / Silver

I thought I would black parchment for the December PTC swap over on Clarity Crafts Mini Makes and ATCs as it would show up whitework for snow and silver glitter really well.  The prompt is I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas and the colour, silver.

Add the ATC stamp onto the back of a piece of Clarity ATC stencil card in Jet Black Archival ink and fill in using black ink.

Add double lines onto a piece of black parchment using the 2.5”x3.5” rectangles on the nested rectangles Groovi plate. 

Add the snowy church and trees, stars and moon from the Silent Night A5 square Groovi plate using the #2 and #1 tools.

Use the #4 tool to add touches of white work to the rooves and ground to give the impression of snow and set to one side.

After a break to allow the parchment to relax, go back over the whitework with the same tool.

Add Christmas from the We Wish You a Merry Christmas plate with the #1 tool.

Spell out White using the Nested Squares extension plate.

Cut across the outside corners of the parchment, fold on the outer line and a add to a second piece of ATC stencil card using a glue runner on the back.

Add to the stamped ATC card to neaten.

To finish, use a mapping pen, sticky ink and Perga Glitter with a hint of silver on the roofs, trees, moon, stars and ground.

For the card, I had a small Christmas card that I had made previously that I thought contrasted well although it doesn’t fit the theme (see HERE).
