Guess I just can't get enough of this choo-choo! Continuing in my children's book series of cards (were you missing them?), here is one inspired by Polar Express. The misty snow on the ground is pigment ink direct-to-paper (DTP). Then I smeared it with a sponge dauber and my fingers. The light and steam on the Engine are also white pigment ink DTP - using a sponge dauber for the steam and post-it notes to mask the area for the light. There is also some Pebbles shimmer chalk over the ink on those for a little extra sparkle. Inside sentiment says *believe*.Images by A Muse; SU Buckaroo Blue cardstock; Palette Hybrid ink in Noir; Colorbox Fluid Chalk ink - Prussian Blue; Colorbox Pigment ink - Frost White cat-eye and Metallic Gold; Pebbles Inc. Shimmer Chalks; True Blue and 50% Cool Grey Prismacolor markers; Gold Sakura Stardust pen; Sharpie white poster paint maker - extra fine.
