More Christmas...

Today is another of the upcoming release of Christmas images from Lili of the Valley.  This one I sized to fit the entire card which is easy to do with digital stamps.  Another little hint is to take the opacity of the image down a little so its not a strong black unless of course you prefer that.  I like a dark grey rather than a black unless its a very stylised image but I think this type of image is nicer coloured with a softer line, especially with pencils.  Another thing I do is print using the draft method which not only uses less ink but stops the bleeding sometimes caused with blending pencil.

This is not strictly a Christmas card as I used turquoise and a  warmest wishes sentiment, which makes it a little less seasonal.

Tis and other new Christmas images are available for purchase 25th July.


Come again soon
