Good Morning All its Thursday so this afternoon I will be nipping down the motorway to the craft club at Craft Range - lots of chatting, tea drinking and hopefully a bit of crafting!
I must apologise if anyone is looking for my last post I have inadvertently deleted it - don't ask .
Anyway today I thought I would share this retirement card with you.
I apologise for the picture - taking photographs in my very dark house , in winter, when you are not David Bailey, is not the best.
I needed to add a sporty theme so in the end opted for creating a background with words of different sports. I did this on the computer, trouble was it all looked a bit dark so in the end I just printed out the outlines of the words and coloured them with pro marker. The telly is a clip art so I printed that first and worked around it. The stamp is from Little Claire - I have used it loads I masked him off and created a skirting board then I shaded the carpet - you can't see it on the picture but its all a bit mottled (I used a stippling effect with a brush) I thought it would look a bit more like a carpet. I created some wallpaper wit a little stamp and a computer generated sentiment.
