Christmas Angel

Seeing all the beautiful Christmas cards people have been making out there, I thought it was maybe time I put my newly learned skills to use making some Christmas cards to send to my friends. With that in mind, I set about drawing a Christmas Angel.

I drew her using pencil, then coloured her using a combination of Caran d’ache watercolour pencils, acrylic paint, a Sakura Pen-touch marker and a Uniball eye pen. When she was completed I scanned her into the computer to add a digital background.

I created the background using a blend of two of the stencil backgrounds I made last week together with a star brush.

Lastly I took the image, added a digital ‘Happy Christmas’ down the left hand side and created a printable Christmas card.

They’re all winging their way through the postal system at this moment and will hopefully arrive in time for Christmas!
