angel


Remember the background I originally made for the animal challenge


 I had worked on it some further since then,




I used the retiform stamping technique and added this woman out of a fashioncatalogue and gave her some wings.
But it still felt like this page was unfinished but didn't have any inspiration on what to do next,
that is until I read this week's challenge over at The Craft Barn, people.
I knew I had to use this page and finish it off.
I added a gold glow around the image and as I was busy with gold colored the tape also in gold, now they are golden rays. 
The only thing left to do was to find a fitting quote and write that across the page.

Now I think it is finished.
