It seems I have a limited amount of angel stamps...I chose the Paper Smooches set called: A Blessed Christmas.
I actually made three cards...here is the one I am submitting to The Merry Monday Angel Challenge
and it is actually the third card I made!
I first found a sketch and thought that would be fun and I could use some of my coveted pattern paper:
And although this is nice, I really do like a more clean and simple look to my cards (how am I ever going to use all my wonderful designer paper??)
Then I made this card:
when I laid it out I knew it needed something in the corners, so I tried a few different things and settled on some holly sprigs...still not quite what I was looking for...so then I thought of stars...YES!! that is so heavenly, why didn't I think of that first?
stamps: Paper Smooches: A Blessed Christmas, and stars are from Mama Elephant: Make a Wish, the holly is from PTI Tinsel & Tags Sprigs
gold thread
die: MFT stitched square mat
paper: MME: A Merry Little Christmas
Have a great weekend friends!

Oh what a cute bunch of cards! I love that PS angel stamp.
Oh Colleen, this is so lovely - plus all the others you made too. Please feel free to come and play with us in the Snippets Playground, we have only one rule - you need to use up a scrap or two (aka snippets!) - and just have fun.
