Thank you to everyone who sent good wishes for my appraisal this week - I am pleased to report that it went very well!
The week I've had at work has left me feeling somewhat flat and lacking in energy
But I did manage to make one Christmas card this week. It's in my favourite CAS style so apologies if you are bored with seeing these
I've used a stamp called "Joyful Noise" from Penny Black but I am 99% sure that the artwork is Mo Manning - painted in Distress Inks (ReInkers), and the sentiment is from Woodware.
While I was doing this I was transported back three and a half years to art class. I could hear the tutor, Paul, in my head firmly saying "deepen those shadows" and me squeaking back at him "but I'm too scared"!
Hope you have a fabulous day, whatever you are up to.
Hugs, Sxx
Oh wow hun it maybe CAS but your stunning colouring more than makes up for no embellies, well done Paul too lol
