BUGABOO STAMPS' CHRISTMAS CHAOS : DAY FOUR

 

WOW - it's Day 4 already and today's challenge has a recipe for you to follow - this is my DT card to inspire you:

 I merged today's new release image with a scalloped circle that I fussy cut.

the one word embellishment is "JOY" that I coloured with alcohol markers and covered in Stickles
My 2 different embellishments are the gem in the centre of the  'O' of the sentiment and the gold cord.
The three layers of paper are the flags.

THE UNSTAMPABELLES :: SPARKLE AND SHINE

tThe December challenge at The Unstampabelles is SPARKLE & SHINE - that shouldn't be too difficult at this time of year!

This is my DT project - an angel ornament made from bits and bobs from my craftroom

The head is an acrylic bead, the halo a punched gold cardstock circle, and her collar is made from a paper doiley.
I used painted sucker sticks, covered in in Stickles for her dress, and her legs and arms are also  sucker sticks.  I drew in her shoes using a gold permanent marker pen.

Her wings are printed sheets music.
