Angelique Christmas Card

Today I am sharing a card made with a scrap of patterned paper, some never before used stamps, and gold brads. I started with Neenah White Cardstock that I stamped with 2 angel stamps from Cardmaking & Papercraft magazine using Versamark ink and heat embossed with Gold EP. I added some sparkly Stickles to the wings and robes. Added a strip of patterned paper that I edged with Pilot Gold Marker and embellished with Gold Brads. Quick and easy Christmas card to add to my stash.

Caroling Corky Angels

 Welcome to my studio! Today I am sharing some crafty items that I have been making with wine corks.  The caroling angels are made using beads of various sizes and colors with ribbons, twines, gems, wine corks (collected over the years), and other items all from my stash of items.   I assembled the Angels using a glue gun.  The hardest part of this project was collecting the corks from Wine Bottles. LOL.

These angels can be used as ornaments, decorations for gifts, attachments for wreaths, or just for hanging around.

 I also used corks for trivets( not shown) and message boards as shown on the left and for a wreath shown below.  I added one of the angels to the wreath.
I will change the décor of the wreaths with each season.

Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa

Angel Card

Another Christmas card using some freebie stamps from Quick Cards Made Easy and sentiment from GKD. I stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with Gold EP on white CS that I edged with Pilot Gold Marker.   I adhered this to foam and then a Red card base.

Tree of Angels

Hello!  I have 2 versions of the same card but used white background on one and red on another one.  I stamped the tree and sentiment from GKD Joyful Holiday set and heat embossed with Gold EP.  I decorated the tree with Gold Metallic Angels cut with Memory Box A Choir of Angels die from Gold Metallic CS.  I used white card base on each and used Pilot Gold Metallic marker to edge both images.

Tree of Angels

Welcome!  I recently won a Memory Box Die A Choir of Angels from Classy Cards 'n' Such and just had to use it for a Christmas Card featuring a tree decorated with the Angels cut from Metallic Gold CS.  I hung them on the tree stamped with GKS Joyful Holiday set and gold embossed along with a sentiment from the same set.  I simply attached to a Pink Cardstock with Gold Foil accents.

Challenges:
Memory Box Challenge: #7 Season Greetings.  I was happy to get this die in time for the challenge.

Angel with Stars

 

Welcome!  I have been playing with a PSX stamp from 2000 which I received at a Stamp Swap at my stamping club.  I was thrilled when I drew this stamp as I collect PSX stamps.   I inked the Angel with Versamark and heat embossed with Gold EP on Ivory CS.  I double stamped the wings, fussy cut them and added to the image for some dimension. I placed this on a Metallic Gold layer and then on an Ivory card base.   The sentiment also gold embossed is an old one from Flourishes. I love the elegant look of the Angel with the Harp.

Challenges:

Retro Rubber: Challenge 29 Holiday Spirit.  This angel stamp, with a lot of Christmas spirit, dates back to 2000.

Triple Angels

Welcome!  Today I am adding to my Christmas cards with a design using an Angel that I stamped 3 times in Versamark  and embossed with gold EP. The stamps used are from Flourishes Alleluia Angel set.  I used masking to line up the images on White Card stock, rounded 2 corners,  and simply added it to a Gold Metallic card base.
