I took my stencil and structure paste, when it was dry, 

I covered it with watered gesso and colored it with Gelatos,

I made this icy tag using

Christmas Reindeer -stencil

Buttercups and Butteflies -stamp set

I made the background by squeezing paint in the middle

of 2 tags, when dried I covered the tag with watered Gesso.

I also used Gesso with the stencil to get the white delicate deer.

Little bit DI on the edges and around the deer.

Then I stamped the sentiment:

"How beautiful a day can be when kindness touches it"

added some die cuts and pearls and of course the white ribbon.
