No place like Home

Good evening,


I hope you are all managing to keep warm  during this chilly spell.  I don't like the cold, I am much more of a spring and summer person.


Today's card is another one I made as a sample for the TV.  This is done with a stencil- but what a stencil!- it is very big!, but if you are making a card, then you don't have to use it all, just pick the bit you want.
For this card, I traced round the stencil with a fine pen then coloured it all in using Inktense pencils. These are watercolour pencils, which are nice bright colours. I like to use more than one colour in each area, then add the water with a brush.  I finished off by stamping the word 'Home' from the word chains.  The links to the Clarity products used are below..

Town and Texture Super stencil


Thanks very much for dropping in - got to my brain in gear, I'm off to the pub quiz!

    Very atmospheric Janet. I love the colours. For some reason our recorder failed when this was on.
