This week has been a bad one for migraine headaches. I had several ideas but didn't feel like making cards because of the headaches. So today's card is a combination of some of the ideas.
The Splitcoast Stampers Ways to use it challenge this week. WT442 was to use angels on our card. I have had this little angel sitting in a box for so long. She had only seen ink a time or two.
The Splitcoast Stampers Mixability challenge MIX31 was to drip drip drip on the page. Can't see my drips? Well, look closely. I thought green watercolor drips would look like the stems for my quilled roses.
The background behind the angel took a long time to do. It started as a page from an encyclopedia. I direct ink to paper swiped blue ink on the top and green ink on the bottom. Then I painted cream colored acrylic paint brush strokes. When the acrylic paint was dry I used Mark's Finest Papers set CRACKED HELLO with blue ink for the top and green ink for the bottom. Then I stamped music notes and a treble clef from Mark's Finest Papers set called JUST A NOTE. I added lac, burlap and rickrack. My little angel was water colored with markers and then I added detail with prisma colored pencils. I also added glamour dust to the wings and itty bitty quilled roses to her hair and dress.
