White Christmas for CCC12, Mojo362 & MerryMonday125

Today's card uses the following challenges.  This is the first time I have used more than one challenge on a card.  Let me say it was a bit of a challenge.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.  Click to view the challenges.  Creative Challenge Club 12 is a color challenge this week.  Mojo Monday 362 is the layout challenge. Merry Monday Christmas 125 is the theme challenge (Christmas with transportation).





I used White Christmas from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.  I just received this stamp set.  I love it.  This card was a bit difficult since I had to make 2 different masks with post-it notes.  I made a mask of the front tree and one of the car.  This card is definitely not one I would do in a class.  Getting the tree to line up was tricky so I had to only ink up the trunk of the tree.  This was tricky too since I was using the Stazon ink pad.  But with all the tricky maneuvering of the post-it note masks I think this turned out super cute.  I love it!  I won't lie I did think about scrapping the whole "make the car look like it is behind the tree" but I liked the idea too much.  

I watercolored the images with an aqua painter and the ink pads all except the trees I did use the Soft Suede Marker on them.  I gave the ink pads a little squeeze to get some ink on the inside of the lid then picked up the color with my aqua painter.  I added Dazzling Details to the snow covered hill for a little bling.
