{Paper Smooches} A Blessed Christmas with Blessed Icons + Video!
Kim shared this card on the Paper Smooches Blog last week. It features the A Blessed Christmas stamp set and coordinating Blessed Icons dies. I hand-cut the patterned papers the way my friend Jocelyn Olson so expertly cuts hers!
I die cut the angel from Tim Holtz distress watercolour cardstock and stamped the image with Ranger Archival ink. Then I watercoloured the image with Gansai watercolour paints.
I used the Ovals 1 dies to create the opening which features the angel. The stitched frame was made with the Dots & Dashes dies and I added photo corners die cut with the Toppers dies. All of the patterned papers are from Studio Calico's Brighton Pier 6x6 paper pad.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

Emily this is a beautiful card, love your watercolouring, the tones are so subtle.
I love this card - it´s just wonderful.
I usually use watercolor pencils, but I do like the effect you got with the pans of color. I especially admired the effect of the silver color. I guess I will need to do a little shopping again. Thank you for the informative and entertaining video.
This is the sweetest Emily. I love the colors.
So pretty, Emily!!! Love it!
Gorgeous, Emily... love the addition of the cloud background - perfection!

Such a soft-coloured, pretty card! I like the little hit of brightness with the one corner that coordinates with her wings. :)
So pretty...love it!
This card is gorgeous!! I loved it when I saw it on the PS blog. The colors, the soft watercoloring, the photo corners--they all look so pretty. Thank you for the shout-out! :)
