Mix31 angel card
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: MariLynn

 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.

I can totally relate to your migraine situation-I'm getting them monthly myself and now I'm dealing with allergy headaches. I LOVE this card with the gorgeous bg with stitching, fabric accents and your beautiful quilled flowers!

Another simply fabulous creation. The richness this has is incredible with the layers. I could look at it forever! It has a folksy sweetness.

Your angel is adorable. The background looks incredible, thank you for such a detailed description. Everything about this is wonderful. I hope you are feeling a bit better, I know how awful migraines can be. TFS

This is so beautiful. I love the colors and all those rich textures, and especially the quilled roses! I have this set (by the way, it's "Not So Short Notes" from 1997) but I haven't used it in ages. After seeing your gorgeous card, I'm inspired to dust it off and ink it up...she will work perfectly for a thank you card. Thanks so much for the inspiration! Hope you're feeling better by now.

Even with a migraine you do awesome work! The background is fabulous, and I love the tiny flowers you added on your angel - she's wonderful!
Hope you feel better!
