Still gazing at the stars

Hello, today is my 2nd inspiration piece for our "Stars" challenge over at Country View. You still have 3 more days to get your entries in and all the details can be see here. There is a chance to win a £20 voucher over at Country View Crafts which always has free postage so it's a great win.

We have finally had some wintry weather after our glorious autumn and many of my walks take place now in the dusk. The fowl on the ponds never seem to mind the weather.

For my first piece at the beginning of the challenge I used my Lavinia fairy and some unusual distress ink colours. Today I am sharing a Christmas card, I have used the same colours  but created a much darker piece. This time I have used darker shades as an under wash

and I then used yellow through my star die as well as some star stamping . I also added some Frantage to create snow.

I then stamped on my fairy and added a Tim die cut. I also stickled her wings for extra sparkle and added glossy accents to the moon,

Here is my finished Christmas card
