Angel

The June Rudolph Days Challenge begins today and runs until the end of the month.  Six months today it will be Christmas Day..... where is the time going?!

The angel is a Sue Wilson 'Illuminated Angel Mini Striplet' die cut, using silver mirror card and backed with plain white card.  I inlaid the star with gold non-shed glitter card.  The background is embossed using a Sue Wilson 'Shimmering Stars' embossing folder, layered over a silver mirror card front.  The sentiment is attached with foam pads.

I am joining in the following challenges:

Yesterday my hubby and I had our first day out in the car since lockdown.  It was such a lovely day so we headed towards the coast at Clevedon.  We walked about five miles along the seafront and back and it was lovely to feel the cool sea breeze.

  3. Gorgeous card Liz! I think this is a great time to start doing Christmas cards. I usually start doing mine in July, that way they're ready and by October and November I'm doing other Christmas crafts.

  13. Beautiful card Liz. Love the die you have used and you have showcased it beautifully. I'm jealous of your day out. Photos are amazing. We had planned our first day out for Wednesday but it rained most of the day and we got trapped in our house by roadworks! Trying again tomorrow!!

  28. Liz, this is such a lovely, elegant card and so perfect for our challenge. We have a radio station here that celebrates Leon day, June 25 (Noel backwards and 6 months from Christmas). They play Christmas music all day long. Thanks for sharing the pictures of your walk, they are beautiful. I'm sure it was a wonderful respite from the lockdown. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Little Red Wagon Challenge this week!
