Patchwork Angel

Good Morning!
I saw a challenge at Digital Tuesdays  called "New Beginnings", and the rules said to interpret New Beginnings as you think.  Well, I don't have any traditional New Beginnings but I did revamp an image using the same elements, so I would say that qualifies as a New Beginning!  Here is my first go of it, made flat and without layers, embellishments, etc for a reason (UGH! It was hard!) :

 and the new card:
Now, I have to say the second was WAY more fun and the flat card WAY harder to make!
All the supplies are simple, used basically from stash, well, actually just ink, water color pencils, glue and paper!  Oh, and a piece of stash ribbon.  Thanks for stopping by to take a peek :-)  Have a blessed day!
Hugs from Manderly
