Christmas Angel using Thistle


This card was done for a class where we were using dies.  


The card was using the Thistle Stock as the base, taking the White Daisy and  sponging with the  Thistle ink.

The die is from Impression Obsession that we were using for Christmas Cards, and have no idea why using this colour came to mind, but liked it when done. 

The Sentiment is one from Impressed by Stamping as the space required that size of stamp in my thinking to offset the design a bit instead of one right across the top.  So that was used instead of one of the many Christmas ones from CTMH here.  

The inside again is layered with the white sponged a bit, as well as the edges to match the front pieces then stamped with a saying from a retired set called Card Chatter, Christmas.   (There are a few of the old sets that are so loved that they are staying here.) 

Thanks for stopping by.

I love that angel! Thistle is one of my next colours to get so it's nice to see it in a sample. Once again Shari your card is beautiful! Your cards are always lovely and inspirational.
