Floating Angel

This card was originally intended for the Whimsie Doodles monthly challenge but I didn't get myself organised enough and the deadline has passed (I wouldn't mind but I did it in good time just forgot to blog it!) Anyway, it uses one of the new January release stamps called Shy Cupid (but I think it works just as well for any other occasion!)


All the papers are Cosmo Cricket - Early Bird digi paper pack and I've handwritten the sentiment. The ribbon I've had in my stash for ages - it was one of those 'finds' when I tided up my large ribbon box over Christmas.

And the Stickles. Well, I bought it in the sales last year at Hobbycraft and it looked like it was going to be a soft lemon colour but its sort of turned out a bit different! I don't know if I should have shaken the tube or if the ink has 'bled' from the image, but its not how I expected it to be! Ah well!

And I forgot to add some ground underneath her so she is floating!

I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Pink Gem: Sketch followed
Do You Stack Up: Ribbons
Digital Tuesday: A New Beginning
Ladybug Crafts Ink: Bows
Oldie But A Goodie Challenge: Have A Heart (old stash - the ribbon and stickles)

  • Image: Whimsie Doodles, coloured with Promarkers and odd coloured Stickles
  • Papers: Cosmo Cricket - Early Bird digital papers
  • Sentiment: Handwritten
  • Everything else: My stash
