Christmas Angels

I've been meaning to make a Christmas card every week this year. So far, I've made 3! Ooh boy, I have some catching up to do. The challenge at Merry Monday is very helpful for inspiration. This week they're asking you to create a card with angels on it. I'm using the tic-tac-toe color board from Color My Heart. I've chosen the left Column - Sapphire, White Daisy, and Bashful. The sketch is from Sunday Stamps.


I stamped the angels onto White Daisy cardstock with Baby Pink ink (I don't have Bashful yet). Then I stamped Gloria in Baby Pink onto my oval, and stamped the verse under it in Sapphire. I used velum for the banner panel to keep the look soft. I matted the oval in White Daisy instead of Sapphire for that monochromatic look. I used a touch of Canary in second generation stamping for the star, and a touch of Smoothie in the baker's twine

I hope you'll come join me in these challenges this week. The tic-tac-toe is so fun!


Materials used:
Cardstock: White Daisy, Sapphire
Stamps: Angelic Blessings, Everlasting Life, Glory to God
Ink: Sapphire, Baby Pink
Other: Paradise Baker's Twine, Vellum (not CTMH)

  5. Beautiful card, and such soft colors. Probably one of the combination of colors I hesitated on because sapphire was such a contrast. But you tackled it and your card is stunning, and the sapphire used on the sentiment cries out a lovely message for a Christmas card. Beautifully done. Thanks for sharing with Color Dare.
