This month’s sketch at Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers group (BYSHC) Challenge on FB is a simple one that has inspired me to create many cards. I’ve had this cute little Angel digi in my files for some time… and found it a few weeks ago when I printed it off. But, for some reason, I cannot find it now?! So, I have no idea of its source. If you recognize it, can you please let me know?
