ABC Christmas Challenge Blog - A is for Angels.

Here is my card for the first challenge of this blog - A is for Angels. First, it's a little rushed but I was determined to do at least one! I struggled for an angel and then remembered my Christmas Dottie downloads so hope this counts. I coloured her with Promarkers again and sprinkled glamour dust on her wings and mounted her on nestie ovals. I hadn't got any Xmas charms so used seed beads and wire to make her belt. The snowflake is my new spellbinders dies - first time I've used them and I love it. The background is a Crafts Too embossing folder used on Coredinations whitewashed cardstock and sanded. A doodled border, silver ribbon, craftwork cards sentiment and pearls (my favourite at the moment) finish it off.
