Solitary skater


I have so much on the calendar this week I may meet myself coming the other way. It all starts tonight with a meal at Pizza Express with friends and then a visit to the theatre to see The Commitments. I loved the film so hope the stage show is going to be good. We are rarely disappointed with the shows there.

So I have been experimenting with my Card-io stamps again. I really love creating these wreaths. I wanted a real Wintry feel with the forest with a touch of colour using small ink pads. I stamped the skater and then created the reflection as we shown at the demo by stamping on acetate. I added a few lines of glitter too.
