Flourishes Noel Challenge



It is time for a Flourishes Friday Focus.. This week the team is joining in on the Flourishes
Noel Challenge over on Splitcoaststampers in the Flourishes Member Forums.  This month the challenge is to create a card using this sketch.  

AngellicA 

I chose the Alleluia Angel set for my Noel creation.. I wanted to create a vintage type card.  Not my usual style but I love this angel in colors other than just white. I stamped on Flourishes Classic Ivory cardstock.. I colored my image with the Flourishes Flesh Tone Copic Collection with a little bit of Fuchsia and Sky Collections. 


I used some Spellbinders Dies and my Grand Calibur..
Standard Circle
Grand Labels One 
Nested Pennants

    I'm so jealous of your ability to mix patterns and make them look fabulous. This is gorgeous. I would have NEVER thought about putting that ribbon with that paper, and yet you did it and it is stunning. True talent you have! Best, Curt
