This card was made for today's color challenge. Gotta love these colors together! I stamped the angel in chocolate ink on crumb cake cs. I used a blender pen and some craft ink to color the hands, face and wings. I added Iridescent Ice EP to the wings and some brown half pearls to accent the image. A Stardust Sakura Gel Pen was used to added glitter to the halo, leaf pattern on the gown and the poinsetti and greeting. The brown layer was stamped and embossed with champagne embossing powder and then bleached. I love the elegance of this Holly Ribbon Embossing folder.
Finished card size A-6.
EDIT: I recut the leaf shape to look more like holly leaf.
