Angel Ray of Light Card
Hello crafters! See what a beautiful background you can create with your holographic glitter! It really does give the angel the perfect background!
The finished dimensions are
6 1/2" x 8" in size. All for now,

Morning Sue This years angel is beautiful. There is just something about her. I love this card. I resisted the holographic glitter for a long time - after all I have oodles of glitter. I had resisted until I saw it on Sunday that is. I was a good girl and didn’t spend a lot of Money, (set myself a tight budget and stuck to it - not like me)! 3 pots of holographic glitter was one of my considered purchases. And let me tell you it is stunning. Stephanie I am glad you stayed safe x These early morning comments are not by choice and Hopefully will not last long - sleep pattern out of sorts! Happy Tuesday everyone x Crafty hugs PP Yvonne x
Hello Sue and all Yes the holographic glitter is just beautiful, perfect bling, I love the really dark blue on dark card as a sky background too, it just stands out so well. This years angel is, I think, your most beautiful Sue, a really lovely card. Hugs Muriel x
Good morning Sue I love the combination of the ray of light die with this year's angel it's a match made in heaven!! I too must get some holographic glitterbitz it looks amazing
Morning Sue. As crafters that appreciate how different projects look in real life in respect to photography your beautiful sample will look totally different in real life, that's when the beauty of the glitter will come to life. The times I've been told photos don't do the card justice lol hmmmm how do you take that lol that the card looks 'pants' when I send a photo to the person that's given me the order ? Good job that my regular customers know by now how different the two can look. I'm off to watch you put this gorgeous sample together and hope you feel better than yesterday xxx
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Fabulous card Sue x the glitters are so sparkly and your angel is beautiful x off to watch the video now x thankyou Sue x Theresa w in Berks xxx
Morning Sue, such a stunning Angel. I will be cutting her out several times later today, as I start my Christmas cards. Just wish that I had the lovely Ray of light die to set her off. Hugs xx Pauline
Good Morning Sue. Ohhhh what a lovely Ray of glitter for today's card. I love it and I am going to try it when I get home. I will be using Angel 2017 though as I really love her. You made it all look so easy in the video Sue. Thankyou so much. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
Hi Sue - this card is really stunning and I love the background. Going to watch the video now to see how you've achieved it all. Sending best wishes YvonneMayxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, this is one of my most favourite of your Christmas cards, it just shouts elegance, love it. Will watch the video later.
Hope you are feeling better.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
This year’s angel is beautiful and probably my favourite - even though angels are not my thing for very personal reasons The card is stunning This is one of the reasons I enjoy going to AP for - that you can see products in the “flesh”
Good morning Sue and all. What a great start to a miserable looking day. A ray of light is very welcome to be sure. I love the sparkly background and I have so many sparklers that I bought when I first started this hobby. Many of them don't have lables and I really don't know if you can mix different pots together. Maybe I should try it. A second option would be to dump the lot and start again. I do appreciate your videos Sue. I watch them on my PC as I don't have a TV. I got rid of the TV when I first lost most of my sight and hearing. Thank you once again Sue. Marie P.
Good Morning Sue and all Stunning card this morning , The Angel stands proud with the beautiful holographic glitter background. . I agree with Steph it can be so hard to get the photo and I know this card will be so much sparkle in the flesh. Thank you for doing the video. Wendy, Pussycats
Hi Sue, a really lovely card and I think the Ray of Light die is just the perfect background for this card. The holographic glitters looked gorgeous all lined up at the front of your desk and I would dearly like to own some but I do already have a large amount of other glitters to use up first and then my biggest problem would be which colours to choose first :-) I hope you are getting plenty of rest and feeling better today.
Hi Sue and everyone She is one of my favorite Angels and with this glitter behind she looks even more stunning. Love it. Hope your cold getting better. I have today first got over Saturday's adventure but it is so worth it to meet you and some of the other ladies on this blog.

Love Lynda xx
Hello Sue, Love this card, your Angel is absolutely beautiful and ray of light die gives a lovely background to this stunning card. Hope you are begging to feel better. Take care, hugs Brenda xxx
