Christmas Cards
I always make my own cards, this year I choose something simple.
Here are the details.
I cut fir tree shapes to make a stencil, there are so many ideas to choose from.
I used white emulsion paint and a stencil brush
I used recycled paper shopping bags for the background
and made rows of white trees
Then when they were dry I added the green trees using Acrylic paint.
Ready now to be cut to size
I used white A4 card cut in half lengthwise for the back of the card and folded a piece of it back so that the card would stand up.
Then I stuck the stenciled paper to the card
Don't forget that both emulsion and acrylic paint dries fast..good on the paper... but not on your brush!
Enjoy!
