In much the same theme as the last ACEO, but this time the snowflake is cut from a piece of lavendar-purple handmade paper. (No, I didn't make it. I bought a package of handmade papers.) The paper has these lovely thin threads running through it, and you can see them in the snowflake. Made for an interesting time trying to fold and cut them. :)
The background is acrylics thinned with lots of water and dropped in layers onto wet watercolor paper, giving it that soft blended appearance.
NOTE: One of the snowflake series cards will go to the Strathmore ATC swap.
If you haven't sent in your card, there's still time. It sounds like fun, so join in. Postmark deadline is Nov. 26 -- next Wednesday. Get the rules and entry form at: http://www.strathmoreartist.com/atc

Talking about arts is one of the things I am really fascinated at. Thanks for this post. I also want to share a site I have discovered which offers small, free background tiles with ten new ones every week. See here www.pictureseeds.com
