A CHRISTMAS CARD FOR MY COLLECTION

I am determined to build up a little collection of Christmas cards to avoid any last minute rushed makes at the end of the year.  This card features an image from QKR Stampede


I coloured the image using alcohol markers, and neon gel pens:


The light rays were made by stitching on the metallic gold embroidery thread:


I love the effect the gold thread gives!

Thanks for visiting me today.
