Delightful Angels

Today I get to show you another card I made using the Musical Angels set from Digital Delights. This actually wasn't the card I was supposed to post today but we had a little accident between the card and my daughters root beer :) Luckily I had this image colored up for a beginners Copic class so it the disaster was quickly avoided! Make sure to check out the Digital Delights blog for other wonderful samples from the DT!

Angels Among us

I am so excited to share this special release from Digital Delights! One of Wendy's customers requested some angel images and Wendy did not disappoint! I think she is just the sweetest image!

I paired her with some wonderful paper from Making Memories and gorgeous cardstock from the Paper Temptress. This mica/metallic is one of the prettiest shades of ice blue I have seen.
Please check out the other wonderful Angels in the collection!
