I had to make a retirement card for my youngest son's nursery teacher - Evan is now 13 so has long since left nursery behind but he still remembers Mrs Waugh and it was lovely to be asked to make a card for her from her colleagues.

I decided to follow a sketch from Sunday Sketch and Stamp for the card and to use a new stamp I got at the Stamp show at Edinburgh Corn Exchange the other week. It is from Lavinia Stamps and it is called Chinese Lantern.

The background papers are by K&Co and the sentiments are from a little set by River City. I coloured the image with Promarkers and used Diamond Glaze over the colour. The edge of the card was inked with distress inks.
