Non Traditional Postcard

Good evening, back again with another Christmas theme creation and today I am showing a postcard I did for a swap, the theme being use No Christmas Stamps.  I have to admit I found it hard trying to keep to not adding lots of embellishments that might fall off, or going for lots of texture which I love. All products used are at the bottom of the page and I also did a step by step of the background :-).
I would like to enter the following challenges :-
Let's Craft and Create Challenge - Christmas
Mixed Media World - Anything Goes
Anything But Cute Challenge - You Have Mail (this is a postcard)
Crafting By Design Challenge - Anything Goes
Make My Monday Challenge - White Christmas

I used the Tim Holtz Crazy Things Stamps for the hats,

and because I also needed non traditional I used a witches and birthday hats.

To make them fit I stamped them and then cut them down slightly.

For the background I used Cotman Watercolour Postcards and used 

a cut out circle and Clarity mountains for masks. Then I added lots of blue paints.

The colours I used are at the bottom of the post.

I used a sponge to dab the colours on to give some texture to the postcard.

For shimmer I used water colours Twinkling H20's, I sprinkled them on and

then dabbed again.

When the masks where used I painted the moon and snow white.

To give a stormy sky I used paint on some areas of the moon.

The snow was made up of puff paint and sparkle texture.

Right that's all for today, see you again tomorrow.  Thank you so much for visiting.

Happy Art :-)
