I used an angel stamp from Stamps Happen and coloured her skin and cheeks with pink, and shaded her dress and wings with burgundy. The background is pale blue sky designer paper and I coloured the plaid in bright blue and the hearts in red and finished the card with a burgundy ribbon. I stamped the angel twice...once onto the sky paper and then once on white cardstock. I then coloured the white one with SU markers and an aquapainter and cut out the border and angel and paper pieced them onto the sky!Sunday, November 14, 2010
Angels Gather Here
The Play Date Cafe challenge this week is to use the colours red, pale blue, pink, bright blue and burgundy! As we say in Australia....Crikey! What a challenge!
