Angels


Happy Valentines Day to you all, are you all swimming in red roses and chocolate yet or is he like mine and done his usual last minute dash to see what's left in the shops!
Over on the Joanna Sheen forum the monthly challenge is to use the first JS CD you bought, my first was Vintage Christmas so I made another of my specials for this coming Christmas.


Using the largest size image on the sheet and one of the matching backing papers. Image is layered up then matted onto white card and silver mirri card, BP is also layered onto silver mirri. Die cuts are all from Spellbinders, pearls, lace and ribbon from my stash. Sentiment stamp from LOTV.
Inside has been decorated to match.

Oldie but Goodie - lace (sentiment stamp is over 6 mths old)

Paper Pretties - add texture
Stamp Man - texture
