Christmas Comes Early Blog Hop: A Simple Gilded Card Challenge

Hello friends!
I am back again for my second challenge for the 
Christmas Comes Early Blog Hop Party Challenge.

The inspiration for my second challenge is the lovely 
Pink Haired Angel Angel Die Cut from 
Rita Barakat's Angel Wing Die Cut Collection.



Every time I look at these angels, I literally think of a host of songs, both holiday and inspirational, but kept coming  back to the Christmas classic,
"Angels We  Have Heard On High".

I decide to go with a a basic 5x7 card, and add some gold & glitter, and of course soft feathers 
to add to the angel wings.

The gold foil paper, by Rinea, made the perfect
northern star, and some Gold Dew  Drops form the Robin's Nest, gilded stars in the "distance".





I used gold ink, and stamped miniature sheet music in the background, and added gold metallic thread.

Your challenge,
is to create a simple card, layout and design up to you, but add some glitz & sparkle, ANYTHING to give it spark.

Instructions for this challenge:
  • Use a basic card
  • Add some kind of glitz, bling or sparkle
  • If you have Rita Barakat stamps or die cuts, please feel free to use them in this challenge.
  • This is not a requirement though, any products or images are just fine.
