Rather poignantly, my creative space today consists of little angels. Poignantly because today is Pregnancy and Infant loss Rememberance Day. Eight years ago our first little angel, Meika was stillborn so it's very bittersweet to have angels in my space today, particularly as the angel I have just completed has red curly hair, just as I always imagined Meika to have. Today's space has had tears and sad memeories but also extra cuddles for Meika's siblings.
I began sketching these little angels whilst away and haven't been able to stop thinking about how I would make them. So even though I have many others projects and trades to complete I had to get these made and "out there". After 3 attempts my little angel is just as I imagined her, cute. Sage seems to like her as well, which is lucky as she gets all the prototypes.
How very special that she was completed just in time for today. In memory of my own little angel and her many, many little friends I would like to offer a giveaway of one of these little angels. Simply leave a comment and spare a thought for all the lost little souls and their families, and I'll make up a special little spirit for your Christmas tree. Entries will close Sunday evening.

What gorgeous little Angel softies, you have a real talent.
p.s. please don't enter me in the giveaway, that is not why I posted.
Hugs Megsie, I could not imagine the grief and sadness you must feel to have lost her.
I only recently found out I have a sister/brother in the sky...as an only child I always wished to have a sibling. Well I now know I do and I know they are my little guardian angel looking after me and my family. xx
Thinking of you and your special angel and all the others who leave too soon. xoxo
The angels are adorable Megsie, and what a beautiful way to remember your angel.

Isnt it strange how grief can overwhelm you without any considering for the fact that its dinner time ;) My heart goes out to you today and all the other families that have had to grieve their children too soon. We lost a little baby "Issac Caleb" before his time. How precious it would be to have a little something to remember him by at Christmas time (although, I think it would be too sad for me to pack him away, I wouuld find another home for him during the year)
Aww Megsie, hugs to you. Indeed, a beautiful way to remember your sweet angel xox
she's gorgeous, as I know Meika would have been too :)
hugs from me too, and don't enter me in the giveaway either .... just send me one of your other prototypes LOL
no doubt your angel Meika is shining her light down on you and the rest of her family today and everyday :) so sorry that you had to say goodbye so soon :( Hugs to you today, and all the other parents who have lost their little ones too early.
That is one fabulous angel - well worth giving time to :) Sorry for your loss but so lovely to read of your love and thoughts. K
Your angel is beautiful and a wonderful way to remember your daughter. Hugs for you.
I'm sorry for you loss Megsie and family, and everyone else who has also lost a precious Angel too soon.
You're angels are beautiful, what a lovely little keepsake for your family to remember Angel Meika.
I remember with a stark clarity the night my niece was born and lost her life. Every anniversary that goes by is marked by ritual and remembrance. I can very much understand how cathartic making your lovely angel would be.
I love the angel, so sweet. Hugs to you and your little ones.
Lots of bloggy hugs coming your way. A lovely serendipitous story. And the angel is a lovely tribute to your dear angel.
Oh that gave me goose bumps all over. Your angel is gorgeous and a precious way to remember Angel meika. Love
Your wee angel is so special, thank-you for sharing your story. I'm going to go a shed a little tear into my tea cup now x
