Hello crafty friends, TGIF!
We have another awesome Christmas release from Simon Says Stamp called “Holly Jolly” today! YAY!!
For my card today, I used the Holiday Words background stamp along with the Sentiment Strips Slimline Christmas. Oh, I love this modern and fashionable diagonally holiday words background so much. 
First, I die cut an A2 sized panel from watercolour paper using the Basic Rectangle panel die. I then stamped Holiday Words onto watercolour paper panel with Fired Brick Distress ink. Some part I stamped with Candied Apple & Vintage Photo Distress inks – I used MISTI stamping tool for stamping several times.
As you already know, Distress inks react with water so I roughly stamped, and then brushed each letter using water brush. Of course I added water drops here and there.
Look! with Distress inks & water brush, we can easily make a pretty watercolour cards!
I will share more bright & shine winter holiday cards tomorrow!
So stay tuned. :D
Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy a safe and restful weekend!!
Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

I LOVE how you took a rather busy background stamp (words) and made it into such a charming card. I did not order that stamp last night when SSS sent me the early order email, but now I am thinking I should have. I also love the way you colored everything! AWESOME JOB!! Blessings on you now and always,

Love, love, love this! Your coloring and distressing are wonderful. I wish now that I would have ordered the background stamp!
The alterations made to the letting with your brush pen made such an impact. This card is wonderful! I really enjoyed the punch of red that still allowed Santa and his reindeer pop off this panel.
