High Hopes challenge 67 ~ things with wings

Hello & Happy Sunday to all!! It's been a busy weekend & I'm looking forward to relaxing today! If you call helping with homework, cleaning & doing laundry relaxing :)

Today's High Hopes challenge is Things with Wings....use anything with wings on your card....butterfly, bird, ANGEL....





I used one of the many fun High Hopes angels....Bethany Angel. She's colored with Copics (notice I've been using those more often??)....& I used my new Sparkly Fluff from Our Craft Lounge. The color I used is Sugar, & you can get it at 7 Kids College Fund. (See all the fun colors HERE. I also got the Appletini Green. The name alone was enough for me!!) The papers are SU's Sage Shadow & Basic Grey Nook & Pantry. I inked the edges with Sage Shadow ink, then Frayed Burlap Distress Ink. The "thank you" is from Hanna Stamps....the butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch...& all the flowers are Primas.






Tried to get a close up to show all the details....but I don't think this photo shows *any* of the details, lol.





I sprayed all the flowers & the butterfly with my Pearl Glimmer Mist.....that & those adorable little flowers are my new favorite toys...I'm using them on everything!!






Also tried to get a good pic of the Sparkly Fluff.....don't know if you can see it but it is AWESOMELY pretty!! How can you not love this stuff....it's like Fun Flock & glitter in one!! Hey....at least you can see the shimmer from the Glimmer Mist in this picture!!

Be sure to check out the High Hopes blog....lots of fun creations!! Hope you can join in on this fun challenge!!

This card is a thank you card for my son's den leader. She's been his leader for 3 years & this week he crosses over into Boy Scouts. I'm very grateful to her for all she's done. And I'm so proud of my son for sticking with Scouts. He's learned so much, & he is joining a phenomenal Boy Scout troop. I'm excited for him & for all the experiences that lie ahead!

Hope you all have a great week!!

Hi Michelle! Love your card! adorable image and super coloring! Also love the sentiment on the dp-great idea! I have some roses, but need to get to using them-hoarding them I think! The lace is a great touch!
