Happy V-Day everyone
I hope everyone's having a good lurrrrrrve day :)
I've woken in a strop because the curse of Friday 13th cost my Canucks a win in Dallas, but hopefully it will get better as the day goes on, eh?
Here's my card for Ian.....I went for something a little non trad because I'm not really the slushy lovey dovey type, so wanted something a bit different from the usual hearts and flowers. Bah humbug :)
Alison came up with the line "my Valentine makes me smile" (ta bessie! good one) and this is what I came up with
Andy Warhol eat your heart out :D
Am actually quite pleased with this one as it is the first three part stencil I've ever cut, and I really like the look - especially the way everything doesn't quite line up properly so it leaves the odd white bit reminiscent of 1960s litho prints.
I will definitely be cutting more 3-parters.
Here's the original image from google that I based the stencil on:
Yep definitely andy warhole lol
