I created this card using the BIGZ Layered Angel Wings die, Shaded Lilac Distress Ink, and gilding flakes. I really like this angel wings die because it has three different sections for each wing…more creative possibilities. In my next card, I’m going to apply distress ink along just the edges of the wings’ sections to define them even more.

As I write this post, the temperature is -5, but the wind chill is -31. The wind is blowing at 27 MPH. I go by wind chill in the winter because that’s what it actually feels like when you step outside. It’s been a bitterly cold winter in Minnesota for a while now. Can’t wait until it’s summer again!
Stay safe and keep warm!!!
