Faux Dove……
Hello everyone, life has been very crazy busy for me! Today I finally got some time to get in my studio and play…woohoo! I went and checked out the featured stamper challenge over on Splitcoast and Becca Stamps is the featured stamper for this week, her blog is called Amazing Paper Grace and what an amazing gallery she has!!! Here is the card she made that inspired me to make this one…..
The bird image is actually a humming bird image from Rubbernecker but I wanted a dove so I’m calling this bird a Dove….lol!
The base of this is shimmer white cardstock and then SU Night of Navy cardstock. The main image panel is PTI linen vellum cardstock, which I used a rub-on up in the corner from K&Company, also the pearls. The dove is stamped on shimmer white cardstock and cut out, popped up on foam tape. I used a blue & orange Copic marker on the dove. The sentiment is a circle sticker from Design Originals, the scallop circle is punched with the yellow marvy punch, from PTI linen vellum. Used my Martha Stewart Doily Lace Edge punch and some white shimmer grosgrain ribbon at the bottom. The leaf the dove is holding is a punch.
Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a fabulous day!!
