Best Wishes and Sweet Dreams TFATU DT card for May 2023

 Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity blog!

This posting shares a bit of sweet love for heaven with this Caroling Angel image.

WHAT: TFATU or The Fairy and The Unicorn Challenge blog's May 2023 project

WHEN: 1st Saturday of May to the last day of May (May 6-31st); then June's will start on the 3rd

SHOW and TELL:


1. the base card is from CTMH card kit = gifted by a fab crafter friend

2. the frame die-cut = Prima Marketing (I did alter the center area from a light blue to a bit more light lavender blue to help it coordinate more with the ribbon and card base

3. the Caroling Angel digital image = I think this is The Paper Shelter; I've been a winner at a few challenge blogs during the past 6 months or so and have been able to pick out images from several companies!!

4. image is colored with a combination of markers and colored pencils

5. 2 doily pieces were overlapped behind the frame die-cut and then the french blue/lavender ribbon was wrapped and tied; then I did some DIY for the pine branches (a green lightbulb foam sticker was cut vertically in half and then the outside edges were cut on diagonal)
