Angela's Walk in the Snow.

Good evening Followers, Friends and Visitors,

I do hope you've all had a good day.     We've had another dull, wet day.   Grandson persuaded me to play a game of Monopoly with him that lasted from 2pm until 5.15pm.  so no crafting again today lol!   Hoping to fit some into my day tomorrow.   Well onto tonight's card.   I have used  Imagination Craft's  'Angela' stencil, another Art Deco Lady.   I do like these stencils, just so different and of course I adore Art Deco.

Fold the ready creased white card in half down the centre, making a 7"x7" base card.   Matt a smaller piece of blue card onto the base card.

   
Take the snowflake patterned card and lay the stencil onto it,  placing the lady towards the left-hand side of the card.   Spread the bright red Sparkle Medium over the parts of the design you want to be red, ie., coat, sleeves, hat and shoes, masking off everything else using masking tape.   Remove stencil and leave to dry.

 
Mix a small amount of diamond Sparkle Medium with a drop or two of the candyfloss Inkadink to make a skin  colour.    Return the stencil to the patterned card and spread the mixed Sparkle Medium over her face and legs.   Remove the stencil and leave to dry.   Next spread the black stars Sparkle Medium over her hair, gloves and umbrella.   Remove stencil and leave to dry.

  
Using a cocktail stick, add some Magi-Bond glue to her collar, cuffs, bottom of her coat and the pom pom on her hat and add some white Flower soft to give the effect of fluffy fur.   That is the lady finished.   Glue this to the base card.



Spread some diamond Sparkle Medium with a touch of blue sapphire, over a piece of white card.   When dry, die-cut four snowflakes using the Tattered Lace snowflake  dies.   Glue these to the card front.

 
                                  Glue a red ribbon bow to the bottom right  snowflake.


Hope you like this card, just a little different from the usual Christmas card.    Have a good Friday, it will soon be the weekend.    See you soon.

                                                                Love and rainbows,

                                                                  Hugs   Jennifer xx.
