GOLDEN ANGEL

 Hi everyone the weather is horrible again here raining & strong winds.
Hope your getting better weather.Your all welcome to my little blog
I have a Christmas card for you today if you like it please leave me a comment
I appreciate them thank you.

I started with a 8 x 8 blank base card matted with black then foundation gold card
then another black mat. I embossed Sue Wilson's Classic adorned rectangle die with the gold
i made the frame by embossing first the cut it after.i covered a piece of card with sticky sheet
Then gilded it with gold mica flakes then glued my frame onto it using  mountain foam & some cosmic drys clear glue, trimmed the excess off from under frame.
I cut the 2015 Christmas Angel Designed by Sue Wilson onto the front of gilding flakes
cut some of the stars & the joy also in the set. i shadowed the joy with black card.



 Thank you all Hug's Lynda xxxx

  1. Hi Lynda, hope you all ok in the family incl. four paws and beaky. Did some gardening, just tidy up around the patio the other day but stupidly did something wrong and the back now in such a pain, never learn but little better today after been to the pool and sat a while in the spa. Nice and warm and something else that's warm looking is your Angel card today. Beautiful in gold and the gilding flakes, you are very brave :-) still can't get a grip of that media. You should have popped in for a Builders Tea passing Mk, maybe next time. Glad you had a nice time. See you around, love and hugs

    1. Hi Maria,
      Oh what you like doing gardening, you should be careful. I don't do gardening any more. As my back is worse lately + my feet & legs think I want putting down hehe.
      OH has Man flu he is a little better today just got back from Tesco. I would have loved to stop for a builders Tea Maria maybe one day.x
      Thank you for your lovely comment on my card,you should have a go at the gilding flakes it's really easy.:0))

  2. Hello Lynda,
    Oh this is lovely. The angel looks so gorgeous against the gilding flakes. I may have to borrow that idea.
    I see your OH has Man Flu, it's the moans, groans, sniffles and sighs that get me. Why can't they just be ill, without all the sound effects ha ha.
    I hope the old back, feet and legs sort themselves out soon.

    1. Thank you Tracy for your kind comments on my card. Haha them flakes are a nightmare if you cough or sneeze or like me When putting them in bigger container Iwas trying to undo the lid I dropped the pot they went everywhere
      My little Chawuauwa looked very pretty with gilding flakes on her. But she ran into front room shaking so you can imagine the mess.
      Hope today went ok with chemo take care my friend & glad my card cheered you up

  6. Hi Lynda,
    Like Margaret I nearly missed this card but I'm so glad I didn't .....it's stunning, love the angel and the gilded background, the colours go so beautifully together. Another beautiful angel from Sue W but although I bough this one I have to say I loved the first one but that said your I still love what you have done with her. Hope hubby has recovered from his 'man flu'. Lots of love lovely lady Sheila xxxx

  7. Thank you so much Sheila for your lovely comments. I think this year's Angel will take some beating for Sue if she makes a 2016 one.
    I love all the November die releases they are all Gorgeous. Hubby is a lot better thank you he is Still coughing.
    Love & Hug's my dear friend Lynda xxxx
