Today's MIX challenge is to use thread, gold and or silver thread. I've used Gold thread for this angel
I see many cards where the ladies loop the thread and attach. I'm loop challenged. So I did paper embroidery.
I told Anita the hardest part is the piercing, but it is really threading the beading needle. I had to borrow my DH's 3.00 cheaters. My 1.25's weren't enough. Time to upgrade.
The second hardest part of this was the hair. I needed a third hand.
As with most afternoons in Utah's Dixie, it's windy, this angel needs some hairspray.
This background is done by smooshing the Mixed media paper into the Lumiere paint and water.
This card will also be put into the June Christmas card challenge with the theme of Peace.
