Morning and WOW 1st December-we have a new Christmas challenge at Scrapping4fun
I cut out a picture of a leaf and used the negative to make a stencil.
Made a background using oxide ink and torn card for the clouds.Quite surprised myself how it turned out so made three and idea for posting as flat.The Robin and sentiment stamps are from Pink Frog and coloured with promarkers.

Great stencil you created to add interest to that wonderful image. Nicely done creating more than one card too. I love when I can get a few cards from one design to build my stash.
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever Carol, I love your leaf stencil and the cloud effect - so pretty. And, like you said, a great card for posting, and that is something we all have to think about these days.
