Angel Christmas Cards

 I wanted to play again with the Build an Angel die set from Paper Trey Ink, using the smaller of the 2 angels in that set to add to a card.  I have 2 cards today.

supplies: Peacock, Audrey Blue, White Shimmer, and silver glitter cardstock, Build an Angel dies, sentiment and banner from (retired) The Crafts Meow Little Angels stamps, silver embossing powder,(retired) Wplus9 Pine Frame cover die, adhesive foam squares

I'm sorry to use so many retired things on this one, but the fit was just too perfect!  I lifted the pine cover die above the card front for some fun dimension and shadows.  You'll see on my next card that that PTI gave us a sentiment set to go with these angels, but I remembered also these banners and a selection of sentiments that came with a The Crafts Meow stamped angel set, and I liked the idea of a curved banner.  They were embossed in silver.

My next card was made for someone who loves pink.

supplies: white, pink, shimmer white, and dusty pink glitter cardstock. Build an Angel dies, Angelic Sentiments, embossed in silver, a banner die, Spellbinders Adorning the Tree 3D embossing folder, white pigment ink, adhesive foam squares

They don't show up in my photos as well as I'd like, but I wanted to let you know that I found some glitter card that cuts much easier than anything else I have - it's made by Simon Says Stamp, and comes in a gorgeous array of 6" sheets!  

As of this writing the angel dies are sold out, but you can also look at Paper Trey Ink and Scrapbook.com for them.  I know they'll be used often, and not just for Christmas!
