Vellum and gems for a Christmas angel

This is the fifth card I made last night for the 25th club on BF forum, with the subject of 'angels'.

The card base is a matt gold one - the greetings paper is vellum and once again I've used a favourite Christmas 'Hark the herald angels sing' stamp, partly coloured with copics, with glossy accents on the halo. The pearl gems are Prima.


This is also for these challenges:

Incy wincy 48: 'things with wings'
Fussy & fancy 13: 'monochromatic and wings'

Simply angels

My fourth card this month for the 25th club on BF forum (subject: angels).

Once more I've used the free downloaded sheet music for Hark the herald angels sing. I stamped the Anita's angel stamp and then stamped again so that the second one was faded. Just a hint of colouring with copics. You can't see it here because the white card covers it, but the base card is a matt gold one.

Simply ribbon and angels

A third card for this month's 25th club on BF forum.

This time I've stamped the Anita's stamp angel twice, using the masking technique, coloured with copics. The background card is a gold embossed foil card. The ribbon is tied in a 'faux' bow - a piece of ribbon at right angles under the main strip, which is then tied to make the knot.

Another angel card

Another Christmas card for the 25th club on BF forum.

Once again I've used the free downloa sheet music of 'Hark the herald angels sing' for the background. The stamp is Anita's, coloured with copics and glossy accents on the halo and parts of the wings - the image has then be mounted on gold mirror card.

Cracking on with Christmas cards

For the 25th club on BF forum, Janice has chosen the subject of 'angels', which is a good opportunity to use one of my favourite Christmas stamps.

Last night I made five cards for this theme - I pledged that I woul make ten cards each month for the Christmas 25th club and so far I've been able to meet that target - and, gosh, half the year has already gone.

I downloaded free sheet music for Hark the herald angels sing, coloured parts of the stamped image (Rubber Stampede 'angel collage') with copics and added glossy accents to the halo. The image was then mounted on gold mirror card.
