Hello crafty friends,
Can you believe it's December... I'm not ready for the Holidays, but I am ready for the start of a new challenge. The start of a new challenge is always fun.
The card i created for this challenge is full of shine, but it's so hard to capture it in pictures.
I inked blended the background with several different brands/shades of red ink. I used a circle die cut initially to masks were the angels would be, to keep those areas lighter in order to create halos or glows behind them. Tip: don't keep the mask in place during all of your blending in order to get a soft undefined area instead of a bold masked shape.
Once inked, I sprayed Glimmer Mist onto my inked panel and attached the panel onto my card base (4in x 8in). The top and bottom angels were taped flat, the middle angel i pop up with foam tape.
The angels are from Memory Box and they are sold separately. Gilded Angel Background and Gilded Angel dies. For my card, I die cut the background from silver glitter card stock and the lacy overlay die from velum for a soft look, but i found it too subtle, so I think white would have been a better choice.
Thanks for stopping bye.... I hope you'll join us for this challenge. One winner... selected randomly will receive a $15 gift code to Scrapy Land. Top three and honorable mentions will be selected by the Designers. Until next time... take care.
Wonderful holiday card Mary. Love the red background for these angels.
