Last Christmas...

Hello followers and blog readers, 
I just had to squeeze one last Christmas card! 
Actually, this one can be Christmas or New Year and yes, it's another scene I'm afraid... 


All stamps are from Crafty Individuals. 
I stamped the church (I only inked the church itself) from the CI-474 set in Versafine Pinecone and masked it. 
I created the background sky and snowy hills with Distress inks and paper masks and although the impression is grey there is pink and blue in sky! 
I added the trees, the left hand one is from CI-450, the right hand one is from CI-209 and added the sheep from CI-467. 
A bit of pencil work on the church, path and snow as well as a few touches of gel pen for snow on branches and roof to finish. 

It does feel desolate, but a snow laden sky will do that... 
Only one thing left to say... 

Merry Christmas!

  1. Beautiful and elegant Christine, I don't think it's desolate at all, in fact could be our village Church which stands rather alone. But you do realise I'll have Wham going round my head all evening.
