Framed Dove

Love this version of a Dove card that I found online! It has an awaesome combination of the Taste of Texture DSP ( wood) with the elegance of the Brushed Metallic cardstock!  I chose to use Very Vanilla for my base and dove.

Measurements:  

  • Very Vanilla: 1/2 sheet, 2 1/4" strip
  • In Good Taste DSP (N): 4” x 5 ¼”                                                                                 
  • Brushed Metallic Cardstock (N): 3 ½” x 5”  
  • Soft Seafoam: scrap                                                                       
To Make This Card:

  • Adhere DSP to folded Very Vanilla card.
  • Cut Ornate “frame” from Metallic cardstock. I used the "Tarnished Copper".
  •  Cut full “Dove” from strip of Very Vanilla cardstock.  Attach over “frame” as show
  •   Finish with “sprig” cut from scrap of Soft Seafoam, and some scattered Elegant Gems. I also added an "eye" from the Metallic Pearls.

Shimmery Angels Wings

This is my take on using the Dove "wings" as "angel wings"!!  I love using my stamps and dies in alternate ways, and the Dove "wings" DO make awesome "angel wings"!! Go to your local craft store and find some fluffy feathers to use on your card! The sentiment is stamped in coordinating ink and embossed.  If you work quickly, with a moist pad, this does work to emboss.  I started stamping before VersaMark ink and pigment inks, and this is what we had to do!  You can also stamp in your VersaMark ink and then a colored Dye Based ink, and emboss that!


Measurements:  

  • Whisper White: ½ sheet, 4” x 5 ¼”, 2” strip                                                  
To Make This Card:
  •  Run Whisper White quarter through Embossing Folder.  Attach to folded Whisper White card.
  • Stamp and emboss words (see notes above).  Work quickly as Dye-Based ink dries fast!  Fussy cut around words.
  •  Cut 2 “detailed” wings from Whisper White. Color with Wink of Stella, if desired. Attach feathers to back of wings  Arrange onto card where desired.  Attach to card.  
  •  Finish with coordinating colored embellishments.
