From It's a Wonderful Life, "Every time a bell rings, an Angel gets his wings.", or in this case 'her' wings. I made these for an ornament swap, and kept one for myself, as I loved them so much.

| Using a combination of vintage items and Tim Holtz Idea-ology and Sizzix goodies, I threw it all together, using Ranger Multi Medium and Alcohol Ink, and few extras. I forgot to take step out photos, but they are pretty self explanatory. I used Pearl Mixative to color the soap dishes, and Gold Mixative on the bells, wings, Roses, and fragment dolls. I pounced on Mushroom Alcohol Ink on the gold frames. |

| Using a Leather piece from Sizzix, I embossed it with Tim's Kaleidoscope 3D Texture Fade...LOVE this one. I adhered it to the soap dish and then attached the frame on top of that. Then I just added the pieces on with Multi Medium and Jump Rings. The sentiment is computer generated, and I added Platinum Stickles around it. The flower bases that the Baubles are in are from Prima Mechanicals called Metal Lotus. |
I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
