Winter Angel- PTU


I've used the lovely PTU artwork of Zindy S. D. Nielsen. You can purchase her art and a license HERE.
This is a PTU kit called Winter Angel by Seven’s Scraps. You can visit her blog for links HERE.
I've used a Template #5 by Kirsty’s Designs. It can be downloaded HERE.
The masks are included in my supplies, which are for personal use only and can be downloaded HERE. Add them to your mask folder.
Font used is Scriptina.
