More Silk Painting


                                                                Hi Guys

Hope that your all well and that your all nearly ready for Christmas. I have another silk painting card to show you today. I love this card and really don't want to part with it at the moment - so it may have to be sent next Christmas.

I love the scene that is depicted on the panel and the backing paper I think sets it off really well, although I am now not sure about the red and cream checked border, what do you think?

Happy crafting

I'm off and rolling with an easel card


Hi Guys

Wow can't believe how long its been since my last post! Well today I have a twisted easel card for you. This is the first time that I have made an easel card and I am delighted with the result.

The image was made by doing silk painting and I love the it! I painted it using several shades of purple on the flowers and greens  for the leaves, what the picture does not show clearly (and the close up is not much clearer) is the gold outline, which when it has light on it shimmers and shines, as of yet it has no sentiment as not really sure what occasion I want to give it for. The backing paper was from stash.

Happy Crafting
