Cityscape Night Scene
Hi bloggers! Pixie powders on black card gives you a fabulous night sky, just perfect for the City Skyline die.
The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Now why I haven't got this die I do not know because its awesome Sue, love the card love the die. Top of my to buy list. H ave a great day, hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Happy Saturday Sue. Thank goodness it's a cooler start to the day ! And this Saturday sample is just as cool. I'm loving the background to this little city so much so I'm off to see the architects plans on how it was built so have a great day whatever your plans are xxx
Love this card with the stunning background. I've not got any pixie powders (lots of colour cloud blending ink) but no powders think I may have to invest!
Fabulous card this morning!! That background looks amazing using the powders on black card making for a stunning night sky for the skyline die cuts. I didn't think Pixie Powders were for me but you've changed my mind. I love this card ❤! Debra x
Good Morning Sue and all Fantastic card this morning , I have never tried Pixie powders on black card and the results look amazing. I love the city sky line die and looking forward to watching the video. Wendy
Good Morning Sue. Brilliant card today Sue. Never thought about doing pixie powders on black card. See.... I just get to grips with things and another idea comes along. I am certainly going to try this one out though. I thought I would never be able to get the p.powders right ....but after trial and error I got there in the end and I love how no two pieces look the same. Lovely Sample Sue. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
The City Skyline is such a strong image that it really wouldn't matter which colour combinations you used it would still make a very striking card and this one is stunning!
Ann - now aren't you glad you persevered with those Pixie Powders!...lol..they're great fun aren't they...
