Angels

I was so excited to make a tag this week with one one of my all time favorite vintage prints is this one that came from Karen, The Graphics Fairy:
I love this picture of Italian angels so much that I probably overuse it.  It just really speaks to me.
For this tag I used the 7 Gypsies "Angelo" paper pad's red background paper which went nicely with the robe the angel on the left is wearing; the words "joyous" etc. came from the same pad.  I added some rub on gold metallic watch faces.
While I was at it, I made a second small collage (above) on yet more of the Angelo paper.  I could keep going all night; so inspired!  I love being a part of this tag-making community!
