Happy Tuesday!! I've got a new Brea Reese Brand Ambassador post for you today, celebrating National Hat Day! I myself am not a big hat-wearing person, but I really wish I was! I always love trying them on, but they just never look like "me", so I wanted to make a card celebrating someone gutsy enough to wear one!
So ya'all know I looooove my Glitter Inks. Violet, Ultramarine Blue and Lake Blue blended horizontally created the wintery background. Now my stamped die cuts, I used lots of different products to color them. Oh but first, I custom-colored my ribbon! I used Violet Glitter Ink to tint my ribbon. I used water to lighten the ink in spots, to create an ombre look. This is a technique I haven't done in awhile but I think I should do it more often!

The sentiment tag, I colored first with the Metallic Watercolor Pan set, then I dropped on some Ultramarine Blue Glitter Ink while it was still wet so it would blend and wick, creating a bit of an icicle effect. The girl was colored with the same watercolor set, except for the background which I painted first with Liquid Glitter and then blended Lake Blue Glitter Ink over it. Metallic Brights Pens were used to add detail to her gloves and the snow.
I know it's hard to see in photos but this card just sparkles and shimmers, it's so pretty.
