The stag head decor craze is as popular still as ever...
and I have to admit to having a few stag head items in my home decor.
As it's Christmas craft time,
I thought why not create a glitter stag head silhouette.
And that is what happened!
Christmas picture No.2 in the series of three,

Cut of the inside so you have a silhouette.
Tape the page into position on the canvas
(Or heavy card if you are framing the pic)

You can use this technique to create all sorts of silhouette pictures.
A fun activity for the kids too!
