Christmas Bells

Good afternoon all, 
Hope you are having a good day
and that you have a lovely weekend planned. 
It is our Christmas Party tomorrow in Cumbria , so I have 
been busy getting things sorted. 
I am suffering with a bad back at the moment so it has been slow going today. 

Tomorrow we are using some fabulous little stamps from Lavinia, 
Now they were on my craft table , 
when I came up with a plan .
Hope you like it 


And this is how I created it ,



The stencil is from Clarity, 
I just brushed some ink through it .
Added some detail .


And then created the second bell. 



Using a deeper blue to give the impression that one bell is behind the other .


Next , 
The fun part.
Building up the floral garland, 


I used a variety of colours of VersaFine ink 



Some liquid pearls and chunky embossing powder finished off the design .

The sentiments are from Lavinia too. 

Whoop , 
Another Christmas card made...

Have a lovely weekend all. 
Safe travels tomorrow to the Cumbria gang...
I have my Christmas jumper ready,,,

Much love and hugs 
Jo, xxx
