The angels shouted for joy

For this card I've used the sketch for Christmas card challenge week 35, with a bit of poetic licence because I've used a rectangle instead of a circle:

I've used a bit of an unusual combo of black, white and gold - it's a shame that the photo doesn't do the card justice - the gold is much richer irl. Papers are from a QVC Kanban Christmas kit from last year. The stamp is an inkadinkado one by Tin can mail, just simply stamped on to gold matt foiled card.

The strip of black lace is felt, so it's lovely to touch!

This is also for:

Creative craft world: anything BUT birthdays
ABC Christmas: O is for older image - this is another stamp that is more than a year old
Winter wonderland: fairies or angels
Crafty creations 129: Christmas in July
Fussy & fancy 42: Christmas in July
Sweet stampin: it's Christmas in July
Totally Gorjuss 91: Christmas in July
Desert island crafts 13: I chose: quote for a sentiment, something with wings, use felt, us 3 different colours (black, white, gold)
Crop stop 30: anything lace
Papertake: anything goes
Come and get it: anything goes
Crafty Ho's: anything goes
Happileigh 33: anything goes
Woodware USA 37: anything goes
