Wings 'n' Things

Hello again, I'm back with the promised details of today's new challenge over at That's Crafty Challenge Blog where for the next fortnight our theme is Wings 'n' Things so anything with wings goes!

I've broken out some Carabelle Studio stamps again for my inspiration which I hope you like.


I made my background with random splats of Distress Stains - I used Shabby Shutters, Spun Sugar and Bundled Sage. As you can see, I went roughly across the horizontal and vertical centre lines.
I next stamped some splats from the Carabelle Studio Etoiles, Taches et Background Stamp Set and Antique Linen Distress ink.
I stamped on some stars from the same set with Worn Lipstick Distress ink. I then added some pieces of Tim Holtz script tissue tape.
I stamped the angel tag (Un Coeur d'Ange stamp set) with Archival Coffee ink, placing the script stamp from the set directly underneath on the block and coloured it with Distress Stains and inks before cutting out.
I added the background paper to a kraft card blank and finished off with the tag embellished at the top with a button.

Hope you can enter as the prize is a £20 voucher to the online shop for the randomly drawn winner.
Good luck!
Fliss xx
