Christmas 2015 #35 - recycled

I need to make a bit of a dent in the large stack of cards I have been saving - my goal is to make simple cards to donate - but I never get started early enough on that project.  Oh, well, maybe next year...
In the meantime, I found one that would work behind the window.  (I hope you can see the wings of these young angels - I had to crop quite a bit to get the faces to show!)  The blue bg is embossed with Tim Holtz' bg folder, and the sentiment is by Stampourri.

What a lovely card, Dorothy. I have often thought of putting an image behind the window die cut, but haven't found the right image. This one is beautiful, and thank you for joining us for the weekly challenge at Classy Cards 'n Such.
