Christmas Card Challenges #36 - Angels

It's time for another challenge over at Christmas Card Challenges. This week we have a new Word Prompt Challenge and the word is Angels.


For my card, I used a cute stamp set & matching dies from Neat & Tangled. I created the background of the card with watercolors and colored the angel with Copic markers. I added clear glitter to her wings with a Quickie Glue Stick, but it's hard to tell in the picture how sparkly they are. I heated embossed the sentiment and added Wink of Stella sparkles to the halo. I think this little angel is so cute! Thanks for stopping by!
