\n<\/a>For my Christmas card, I started with a background I made on water color paper. I used some Distress Ink pads, smooshed them onto a kraft sheet, spritzed w\/ a little water, then pressed the water color paper to it. I did one color at a time & dried it w\/ a heat gun, then did the next color. This keeps the colors from running together & becoming muddy. When I finished, I die cut the layers & added the grape card stock in between. \u00a0The angel<\/a>, greeting<\/a> <\/span><\/strong>& very narrow layer around the center panel were die cut out of white glitter card stock. I also die cut another 2 angels & 1 greeting out of a darker purple to shadow them.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the inside, I stamped the And the Angel Said<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, die cut it, then edged it w\/ a purple Permapaque marker. I went over the edging & a little more w\/ a Wink of Stella. I discovered the Wink of Stella made a little of the purple run so I used it to drag a little purple in toward the greeting. I also used it to add a little color to the white angel die<\/span> cut.<\/span>
