It is a multistep stamp and few of my favourite stamps are by Altenew. The year 2015 was a crazy year for distress ink lovers as few of the best shades were released by our favorite Tim Holtz. Hickory smoke is one such colour which can add elegance to any project without making it dull. 

For this card I created a perfect winter foggy background using Hickory Smoke and for the Cardinal the inks are by Altenew .

Adding few water droplets add an extra texture to the background and makes it look even more foggy.

I have a detailed video to share and I hope u will enjoy it!
