Wings

Hi everyone! I am SO glad to be back. The late summer heat and unusually high humidity was just a bit much for me (we don't have central air in our house and the car A/C broke), and I was exhausted most days in the past month. But with cooler weather, I revive! Here is my attempt to carry out the theme of "wings." I had no intention of making it a Christmas tag, but you know how creative pursuits often take you in an unplanned direction!

This involved a lot of "fussy cutting," but I enjoy that.  I thought she would look cute hanging from a package or even from the Christmas tree. The doll stamp is from Character Constructions. The wings are from Mad Rat Rubber.  Great wings for this sized doll!  The sentiment is a retired stamp from Stampin' Up.

I can't wait to view and comment on your creations when I have more time in the next few days.
