Angel Tree Topper


it's the time of the year when we pulled the tree out of the closet and the fun of setting the tree up for Christmas. My youngest daughter was bugging me to buy an angel to put on top of the tree but i thought why not make one :-) so i used MR chipboard girl and some floral ribbon, pearls, added netting wings...the skirt actually supports the angel and therefore, it can stand on its own... thanks for looking :-)

christmas brooch

had a christmas 'make & take' today and colour theme : red and green... didn't have such combination so used a tree chipboard, glitter paper, added snow and snowflakes and star buttons....couldn't find a brooch backing so decided to use a mini wooden peg with mitten and wrote 'Happy holidays' on the wooden mitten. That should meet the requirement :-)
submitted for the following challenges -
1      S is for .... ( ABC Challenge)
2     challenge #10 - Sprinkle and Sparkle (lily of the valley)
