Mixed media at christmas card club

Hello there! How are you? I hope you are well. I thought I set up a post for yesterday but clearly not! Anyway - it will keep until tomorrow. Today I want to post my make for Christmas card club this week where the theme was mixed media....well being pushed for time I used a ready made painty background and stamped it up with a paperartsy stamp. I then coloured the stamp using pens....this is what it turned out like...


He's such a happy little fellow I just had to add the clarity word stamp 'joy'  to the card.


A closer look...


and closerstill...

I am sure he will come in useful when I finish writing my Christmas cards! Wish I could find my address book!!!!!

Hugs

  9. Bright ans colourful card Rachel, I thought this challenge was your choice to start with as it's one of your favourite mediums but looked again and see that it's Mary's. I'll be joining in a little late this time I'm afraid though.

  12. Oh he is delightfully fun, and so colorful. It's going to make someone smile very wide when this envelope is opened, and aren't you clever to have a 'stash' handy to create quickly! (if you had not said, it would still be your secret too! Looks very mixed media arty to me!) TFS & Hugs
