Regan Kubecek's Angel Wings

One of my crafty friends has been having a bit of a tough time lately so I wanted to send her a card to cheer her up... and I thought this sweet image by Regan Kubecek would be perfect:


I used the digi stamp version of Regan Kubecek's Angel Wings and coloured her with my Prismacolor pencils, with touches of white gel pen for accents:


These pencils give a lovely soft effect that I think works really well on this image. I went with pretty pale colours in pastel shades and teamed the image with soft pinks and creams for my card. I embossed a panel of white card using a cute cloud embossing folder and added lacy ribbons, a pearl flourish...


...lots of pretty flowers...

...and a computer-printed sentiment which I cut out using a banner die and inked with Spun Sugar Distress Ink.


Regan's beautiful stamps are available in both red rubber and digi stamp format from the Sweet Pea Stamps store.
