Welcome to What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday

Morning,

Recently, I was asked to make some Christmas cards with a more religious feel to them .. a batch make .. you may have seen this first batch already as I made a mock up and e-mailed to my pal, for approval - she plainly liked them!

Materials used - see below

Since I already posted the originals for the above make, I won't be entering any challenges with the but ...... for the other batch, for the same friend ... you won't have seen these . . . . .

Materials used:

• White C6/A2, 250gsm card blank and matching sized envelope
• White card panels for the front and insert of the card
• Inkadinkado sentiment stamped using Ranger Archival jet black ink on to the white card panel
• PSX image stamped on to a snippet of white card using Ranger Archival jet black ink
• Peerless watercolours used to paint the image
• Plaid dimensional gloss and crystal stickles used to highlight and, once dry, I fussy cut around the image before mounting on to black and then red card
