faux silk Christmas card . . .

My 2nd Christmas card of the year!!






I've seen faux silk cards on several blogs etc over many years &  thought I'd like to have a try, but never go round to having a play.  This my first attempt and thought the technique would lend itself to Christmas and snow flakes . . . . voila!!!


What a lovely day again today.  This afternoon I  had to visit a wind screen replacement company  as my windscreen spontaneously cracked whilst I was away.   It was only replace last year and it has spent 4 months of this year on the drive.  I was just about to phone the Insurance Co when Joe went on to web site of the company who replaced it last year,  On further reading they guarantee the windscreen for the life of the car as long as there is not chip marks,  So I took it for them to see it and they are coming tomorrow to replace it as there was nothing to cause the crack.  So I am one very happy lady!!
