Office Angel


Hi everyone!  I'm back with my Sunday post for Artistic Outpost.  This week I decided to use Secretary Pool and Ephemera Backgrounds for my piece.  I started with a jumbo manila tag from my boutique and stenciled on Jet Black archival in with a Wendy Vecchi Checkmate stencil.  Then the tag was sponged again with Faded Jeans distress ink and given a couple of splats with Faded Jeans distress stain.  Next the images from both Secretary Pool and Ephemera Background were sponged on.  The letters were stamped on kraft card stock, cut out and affixed.  I added a beautiful angel wing charm held on with a ring fastener that started life as deep bronze.  I altered it to silver tone with silver alcohol ink mixture.  I also stamped three pencil point stamps onto kraft card stock and then fussy cut and mounted them.  


I added a beautiful angel wing charm (available in my shop) held on with a ring fastener that started life as deep bronze.  I altered it to silver tone with silver alcohol ink mixture.  I also stamped three pencil point stamps onto kraft card stock and then fussy cut and mounted them.  

That's it for this week's Artistic Outpost DT make.  Hope my Office Angel tag made you smile.  Thanks for stopping by and have a great week.

    A great way of using this stamp set and I love the hanging wings. Has this particular angel hung up her wings for good or merely gone out for a lunch break?! Jenny x

    Just off the top of my head I can think of 5 people who could REALLY use an angel in their office! I'm probably at the top of the list.
    Just wanted to come by and say thank you so much for stopping in and saying hi. I've missed chatting with you but I'm so happy that your dreams are taking off. You truly deserve it and your work reflects such talent. Thank you for always inspiring me.
    hugs to you,
