If you want to see the entire Zenspirations Collection of stamps, please check them out using this link ---> Zenspiration. You will find them unique and different from anything else!


This is the Angels set "I Believe in Angels" that I used.


You can see here, I stamped the image twice. Here are the Copics I used to color the angel medallion.
I stamped the " I believe in Angels" sentiment along a yellow border. The card is several layers and borders mixed together. I added a border punch along the bottom edge. I used 1/16"and 1/8" Black Rainbow Tape to border the edges of the patterned paper strips. Between the layers of the angel medallion I added foam tape to give it some dimension. Ribbon and metal adhesive nail heads to embellish... Finished card size is an A2.

Love the colors you have selected to feature your Zen angel! The stamp set is spectacular and looks like it would be something I need in my stash! Joann has done a great job in designing the images, and the verses. Your card brings them additional beauty.
