Happy Monday everyone! I've been carding up a storm again. I made a few cards on Friday, finished my quilt backs on Saturday and made more cards on Sunday. Two were for Design Team work so you'll have to wait for those. Today I'm posting two others.
This card is for Muse:Christmas Visions, inspired by this card by Kimberly Weiner.
Mine is a little less bright and elegant but I have gold embossed angels with colored robes.
While working on a technique for another challenge I discovered that my background would fit the challenge at Less Is More - Citrus.
I did faux mother of pearl on Neenah Solar White and covered it with Distress Inks. Abandoned Coral was used to stamp the sentiment from N & T and the flower from PB which was also clear embossed.
That's enough for day but I'm so glad you dropped by.

Oh, what a darling scene you created! So glad to see you playing at the MCV! And your second card - fabulous! I HAVE to try this technique! It looks amazing!
BTW you are right - I did use that stencil several times before - its one of my favorites - just love the effect it gives...

Two fantastic cards Bobby. Lover your watercoloured background with the angels. This card looks like it would fit the CAS Mix Up challenge and we'd love to see you in the gallery.
Your faux mother of pearl is gorgeous --- love those colours! xx
I just love the scene you have built and watercolored!
Great take on Kimberly's card, Bobby. And I love how juicy your second card is, what a fabulous blend, and the faux MoP looks great in these colours.
Thanks so much for sharing at Less is More and Happy Little Stampers, Anita x
Your Christmas scene is lovely, Bobby ... seems those sweet angels are just ready to herald His arrival! Gorgeous sponged MOP panel ... the delicate stems are fabulous against all that yummy saturated colour! Did you link this up to HLS CAS ... can't see it in the gallery ... our theme is faux MOP so this would fit perfectly! Hugs, Anita :)
These are both so pretty Bobby! I love your wonderful,Christmas scene so adorable with the sky and angels above!
Such sweet, gold-robed angels in the first card, Bobby. The citrus palette of your second is wonderfully delicious...shimmery sensational. Orange...yummy!
Hugs~c
Love all your fabulous cards Bobby....but your first card with those angels is just stunning!
You created a gorgeous scene with that loose watercolored night sky and angels on the first card! The faux mother of pearl with the orange yellow shade on the second one looks beautiful! Have a great day, Bobby!
