I sponged on the two inks for the night sky and and a little of the teal for the snow. I added some shadows and used the white ink and splatter background to add the snow. A white gel pen was used to bring out some of the splatters a bit more.<\/p>\n<p>I added the narrow strips down the sides (colored navy with Copics) and the greeting in the lower right.
