Hallo,
As time ran down to the wire and I was running out of time making my Christmas cards once again, I looked for quick and pretty ideas for my cards.
Here is one batch that I did last year using Karen Middleton's 'Christmas Angel'.
I colored her several different ways with prismacolor pencils and then cut her out with a die and edged that panel with a gold metallic pen.
I layered her to a base cardstock that I embossed with a 'Merry Christmas' folder and then added some touches of glitter.
I had fun with this sweet image trying out different ways to color her up :)
All for today - Take Care

'Christmas Angel' Christmas cards - Tera

Tera
I am about to adventure into the life of Retirement and am looking forward to significantly more time in the studio, playing with my Grandkids and traveling now and then with the hubby. I have spent 41 years as an RN - mostly in Critical Care. I picked up painting and more formal art again when my kids went from High School into college. I have always done some form of art, even in the busy years of Career, Mom, Military wife - mostly in the crafty forms(sewing, rubber stamping, its a long list...) Now I mainly paint with encaustic wax. Encaustic is an ancient art form from Greece and Egypt that uses beeswax, natural tree resin and pigments. Encaustic is painted while melted in thin layers and every layer is fused to those below with heat( I mostly use a torch). True to my 'normal' self I have 3 or 4 other hobbies that keep me busy too , and you will be seeing(and have been) those here too.
