LIMES: Glory to the Newborn King

Welcome to this week's LIMES inspiration post!

I chose this card as my inspiration from the gallery of this week's Splitcoaststampers' Featured Stamper!

LIST: Colours (white, yellow, red, gray). Techniques (stamping, masking) Elements (coloured angel with yellow 'glory', stamped sentiment, red frame)

INCLUDE: white, yellow, stamping, masking, angel with yellow 'glory', stamped sentiment

MODIFY: angel on the left, sentiment on the right, blue instead of gray, masked/blended 'frame

EXCLUDE: red

SPIN:

Merry Christmas! I was inspired by this glorious angel card,  but made mine a little more clean and simple, and left the angel uncoloured. 

When masking her to blend her 'glory', I realized that there are no rules that say that a mask has to be in one piece! I cut her halo separately from her body and that made it so much easier!

I laid a rectangle stencil over top and blended blue inks to create the sky, to give some definition to the card, and I love how even though it's not filled in completely, your brain can "see" the full rectangle.

I made multiples of this card as part of my Church Christmas project this year.

These stamps are both retired, (Stampendous Angel, Neat & Tangled sentiment) but I've linked similar ideas below.
