Picking up the Christmas Tree with the IndigoBlu Van

Hello Guys,

Do you all know the lovely pickture with the small car and the way to big Christmas tree.... that inpired me to make a special IndigoBlu Van.... with off course a very big Christmastree....

So i started with a small wooden van we have in the shop. It is a very peacefull one i can tell you...

I used some really good Gee Ssoo... with some sand from powertex in it.and painted is complete white. 

And when it was still wet i experimented a bit by using somy dylusion spray and again some gesso to give it this light and cold blue color....

Than i stamped several IndigoBlu stamps on white tissuepaper with Archival Cobalt Blue. I needed a ink that is waterresistant.
I used the Circle Dot background stamp for the wheels. And the IndigoBlu Art Christmas Spirit, IndigoBlu Merry Christmas, for the rest of the van.

After stamped on tissuepaper i cut it out and used SlapitOn Matte to 'glue' it on the van. Tissuepaper is very strong so is does not tear as fast as the kleenex tissues.... And because the Slap it On is a very matte medium you don't see the 'glue' on the background. And because the tissuepaper i used is very thin, you can use it both sides... so it give you extra possiblities to use the stamp also as a mirror image.

And when everything was dried...  put the tree on the roof with some blue and white bakerstwine....

It was so much fun making it... hope you all like it... and wish you and al your beloved the best Christmas.... and a wonderfull, creative IndigoBlu New Year....

With love
Mo
