Hark The Herald Angels Sing


Hey, made this card last night with the 'Crimbo Crackers', card with an angel on, challenge in mind. I love this image; it reminds me of my childhood Christmas stories I used to adore :)


I edged the picture with Brilliance, galaxy gold ink and backed it onto green and gold, then gold card rounding all the corners, including the card blank.

I also edged the card blank with gold ink, then printed the sheet music of 'Hark the Herald Angels Sing' off the internet. I cut this to fit my card, and edged it with Distress Ink, bundled sage.
I added flowers as embellishments, which I inked gold and green to match the co;our scheme. I added two gold leaves, and punched three foliage with a pine punch. I inked the foliage green with the brilliance, pearlescent ivy, and slid them underneath the flowers. To finish, I added a gold angel and two smaller green brads to the center of the flowers.

Very pleased with the result! I would like to enter my card in the following challenges: - crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge - any greeting/sentiment
