We are triple digits here in N CA, so I was hoping a little play with snow would cool it down, nope, it did not work, love, so it is a good thing I am inside with AC.
I am still playing with the Chomas penholder, it is just fascinating to watch it do its thing, lol. So I loved these photo corners #3042 by Cali Arroyo from the Silhouette Library, but knew better than try to cut them out at this size, the card is a standard A-2 card, so I turned them into a background on my card stock. I made by rectangle 5.25X4 with offset of 5.5X4.25, positioned the photo corners inside of the 5.25X4 triangle and let the pen do the rest. I then took it to my table and airbrused the background with BG72, and did the outter portion with BG75, then I sprinkled it with 95% rubbing alcohol and a brush to get the snowflake affect. I believe the tree was in my Library set up as I could not see that I downloaded it. It is in 2 parts the outline and then inset. The outline I used Copic B75 again, the star Y35 and Y32, the trunk E39 and E53, I then took my Tim Holtz "Picket Fence" and my airbrush and sprayed the trunk and the inset part of the tree. I have been using other markers in my airbrush system for a long while, you get a very splattered affect and have to get used to holding the pen and the airbrush just right, if you are going to try and use your markers use the brush end, with the tip extened over the nozzle about 1/8 or 1/4 in. it varies with markers. I then added a bright bow. Happy Wednesday, stay cool, hugs

Awesome! Love how you did the corners. Looks like that will have to be my next purchase, too.

Wow! that is impressive! I can see why you have been enjoying using the Chomas pen tool. I have one and really need to get busy with it. You not only made a beautiful card but you inspired me to try something new. Thank you for sharing.
Fabulous corners. Lovely card.
