So Very Merry Angel in Lemon Lolly

 Here is another version of the angel from So Very Merry, this time in Lemon Lolly. (but could be any color combination) on blue. I loved the doily behind the image so much, that I used it, again!


See how different it looks in blues!

Measurements:  

  • Thick Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 4" square (for doily), 2 3/4" square (for angel)
  • Countryside Inn DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4", cut into 4- 7/8" x 5 1/2" strips
To Make This Card
  • Adhere the DSP strips to the folded thick White card.  I started with the 2 outside strips, and then centered the 2 middle strips.
  • Die cut the larger doily die from White square.  I did not emobss this, but you could. Attach to card front.
  • Stamp and emboss in silver the "angel" from the stamp set. Punch out with coordinating 2 3/8" punch. 
  • Color with Lemon Lolly, Petal Pink, and Balmy Blue Blends as shown.  Attach over doily with Dimensionals. For the blue version I used Balmy Blue, Boho Blue and Lemon Loilly Blends. I left the wings white.

So Very Merry Angel on Vellum

 I originally envisioned the images from the So Very Merry stamp set embossed on vellum and colored from behind.  I did get one of these versions done! I embossed it in gold, colored the image on the wrong side, and then sandwiched it between 2 circle openings.


Measurements:  

  • Thick Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 2 3/4" square (for angel), scrap
  • Bubble Bath (N): scrap
  • Subtles Designer DSP Pack (N): 4" x 5 1/4" Bubble Bath Print
To Make This Card
  • Temporarily adhere the DSP to folded thick White card.  
  • Die cut an opening through both layers using the Stylish Shapes Dies.
  • Separate the 2 pieces, and toss the circles.
  • Stamp and emboss in gold the "angel" from the stamp set.
  • Color with Daffodil Delight, Bubble Bath, and Pool Party Blends on the WRONG SIDE as shown.  
  • Place adhesive around the opening on the White card base.  Center the embossed image and adhere to the opening.
  • Next, add the Bubble Bath DSP on top.
  • Add a 4" strip of Sheer Bubble Bath ribbon from the new, combo pack to the bottom of the card.
  • Punch scallop oval from Bubble Bath, and smooth oval from White.  Stamp desired sentiment in Bubble Bath ink.
  • Finish with scattered iridescent pearls.
