Video: Fun Holiday Card using Ombré Inking & Partial Coloring

Hero Arts_Holiday Card_May Park_4

I’m usually not a fan of critters but I immediately fell in love these adorable images when I saw Winter Bunny , Winter Bear and Winter Fox . I created a circle window panel using the new Circle Infinity Dies to show them off. We'll be featuring Infinity Dies the rest of the week on the blog so stay tuned for more!

I just love the critters peeking out the circle window frame! To highlight my images, I did some ink blending from light to dark on the background using Ombré Inks : Neon Yellow to Orange , Neon Red to Purple , Mint Julep to Emerald Green .

I decided not to color entire images but do some partial coloring to create a high contrast against the colorful background. Instead I added some shimmer and glitters on their hats and mufflers for extra interest.

That’s all for today. Hope you loved my card and got some inspiration to make your own holiday card.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!
