The sweet angels image was sent to me my teamie Nonni and they are my favorite angels. I wish I had this stamp myself, but it seems to be a retired one. I colored with Promarkers and a white gel pen. The wings and stars have glitter glue on them. The background has a thin coat of watered gesso, and I used a stencil for the stars and a script stamp. And, again, I used my favorite chipboard sentiments.
Please head over to the challenge blog to see inspiration from my teamies.

Beautiful angels, made all the more eye-catching in being placed on kraft and surrounded by pretty stitching and a starry sky! Love this!

Fabulous card, these angel are really beautiful, perhaps you could search on eBay to see if could find a pre-loved one. Brilliant design with the gesso on kraft, it gives a particular look to the background! Love your stitching!!!
This is so lovely Pia.

WOW! this is one over the top gorgeous Christmas card! Love your stunning angels and your colors are simply wonderful.
These are my favourite angels too, Pia ... and you've showcased them beautifully here! There's a lovely warmth in the colour palette that contrasts wonderfully with the crisp pops of white in the starry background ... gorgeous! Anita :)
You've done super job with the angels Pia -it looks like you die cut them although I know you must have fussy cut them -so skillfully done! Let me know if you want more angels and I'll stamp more for you. Love the shabby look of this card. xxx
