An Angel for Kelley!

Hello Everyone!!!  Today it's Kelley's Birthday from Our Daily Bread and the team are celebrating by creating cards using her older sets and giving them a fresh look as a little birthday surprise!  Why don't you stop by the ODBD Blog and leave a little Birthday love for Kelley too!!!  I decided to use the 'Angel' set - I think it was the very first one I bought from ODBD - I've always loved angels, so of course I *had* to have this one!!!  :)  Happy Birthday Kelley and enjoy all the surprises the team has for you today!!!!!

I started my card with a base of River Rock and layered with Very Vanilla and then some retired SU Holiday Harmony DSP.  The next panel is more vanilla punched on both sides with the MS Deco Fan border punch and layered with gold and then some more Holiday Harmony DSP.  I stamped the sentiment from ODBD's Angel set in Memento Tuxedo Black direct to the DSP and attached some ivory satin ribbon across the bottom topped with some gold cord.  The Angel has been stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black onto X-press It Blending Card and coloured with Copics (Y21, Y35, Y38, E000, E01, E31, E33, C1, C3 and Lots of Clear Spica) and then cut out and popped up on foam tape.  To finish I added an ivory bow to the ribbon.

Stamps - Angel (ODBD)
Paper - X-press It Blending Card, River Rock, Very Vanilla, Gold, Holiday Harmony DSP
Ink - Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories - Copics, Clear Spica, MS Deco Fan Border Punch, Ivory Satin Ribbon, Gold Cord, Bow Easy, Scissors, Foam Tape.

Wait until you see what the next three wonderful designers have in store for you....

That's all from me today, thanks for visiting!!!  :)

Kathy, I love how you have created a reflection of the Angel's wings in the punch. It added so much to the card. Such a classic which showcases the angel of this set with her beautiful gown. Love the color.
