City Christmas

Morning, Hochanda have been celebrating the 12 Days of Christmas and sadly today is the last day. They have shared a wonderful mix of crafts and offers. Today I thought I would make a Christmas Wall Plaque. For this one I used a selection of stamps from Sheena Douglas.

I took a canvas board measuring just over 5 x 7'' and stamped with Memento black ink the Cathedral Scape from the 'A Little Bit Festive' range, this one is City Christmas.


Next I took the holly sentiment corner from Bah Humbug and again stamped with black Memento.

Then I took the beautiful Santa's Sleigh and Reindeer from Bah Humbug 2 and used the same ink.

I started by masking all of the stamped images with Pebeo Drawing Gum. Then blended the night sky using Faded Jeans, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Dusty Concorde Distress Inks. I then removed the drawing gum and coloured the images with a selection of alcohol markers. I stamped my sentiment in the cartouche. I then highlighted some areas with glossy accents and added some snow in the sky with my Sharpie white fine liner pen. To finish, I punched holes for the ribbon hanger, added the burgundy ribbon and Santa's Magic Key.

I really hope you have enjoyed my step by step today and the project I have shared. Thank you ever so much for taking the time to visit and for all of your comments here and on Facebook, I really appreciate your support. Take care xxx
