For my 'clouds,' I made a template using the Cloud Punch from My Digital Studio. I printed it out then, cut around the clouds. Using the cloud mask, I first sponged Crushed Curry over the entire area. Then, sponged Cajun Craze to give the varying definitions of color. I used Always Artichoke to stamp the image and sentiment from the For All Things stamp set found on page 41 of the 2014 Holiday Catalog.
Stamp Set: For All Things; Inks: Always Artichoke, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry; Card Stock: Whisper White; Accessories & Tools: Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack, Sponge Dauber
