Hi, everyone! Today's Inspiration Challenge is to find inspiration from the World Market...I fell in love with this intricate table lamp.....it reminded me of some of the intricate cutting dies from Our Daily Bread designs. I dug into my stash and found some copper and bronze metallic cardstock for the die cut pieces. To get the embedded cut pieces back in the wings easily, I used wide score tape on the back of the die while the little bits were still in it, then lifted them all at once and laid the bronze wings right over them. The sentiment from 'Holy Angels' was copper embossed onto the white shimmer paper, plus embossing powder was sprinkled over the paper and heated from the bottom so that they would 'cure' without being blown off....thanks to Taylor Usry for teaching me this trick several years ago!!!! A glitter pen was used to highlight the embossed areas of the die cuts. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!!
