I hope you all survived the blustery night unscathed. Have you got all your Christmas cards done yet?? Me neither! Not many more to go now though. Next year, I WILL be more organised! (...did I say that last year..???)
Any way, this isn't a Christmas card - it is another of the cards from the last Clarity show on TV. I have used one of the fab new stencils and the lovely lady is 'Velvet'
The arch is created by placing the stencil over the card and shading through the aperture. I used one of the skyline masks for the buildings in the background. The lamp post is stamped into place and coloured slightly to darken it.
I stamped Velvet in place, then used fusible film and fibres to make her coat - there is a wonderful new yellow colour!!
The centre piece of the stencil(the arch) has lovely rays in it, so I used that to create the rays in the background.
I am pleased with this card, even if I say so myself!
Hope you all have a great day - I am off for a Christmas lunch with my quiz team colleagues today - looking forward to it!
Take care, Janet xx
