This is the third of the "Angel" cards I did and the gal is coming by tomorrow to make her choice. I love them all and it will be interesting to see which best suits whatever she had in mind. She has purchased other cards from me and has loved each one so I know already that she likes my style (if I even have one!) :-D
Here's one with a hand colored image but who drew it or when I have no idea. It was in one of my clip art files and had no identifying information. If you recognize it, or know who drew it, please leave me a comment and let me know. I'd love to give proper credit.
I used ProMarkers to do the coloring and added glitter to the angel's wings. After it dried, I cut the image with an oval die from QuicKutz, then wove white, satin, ribbon through the holes in the outer edges.
I tried putting the image onto embossed white CS thinking it would make a great white-on-white card but, instead, it just got lost. So I switched to a light blue CS, ran it through my "Linen" embossing folder for a bit of light texture, and added the image piece to it. The sentiment is printed and hand cut. I didn't think the card needed any additional embellishment.

You have a wonderful style and I can guarantee she's going to love all three of them - and probably want all three too!
This one is so lovely. I love the way you did the ribbon. Just beautiful.
