Special Delivery...


This card is one of 2 similar cards (this being the second one that I made) The first card nearly ended up in the bin but I put it away and made this one..then came back and finished the 1st one...I hope you are keeping up!!! I used papers from a Papermania Capsule Collection for this card along with a white embossed panel and a new Martha Stewart punch (I bought this one after I broke a very similar Fiskars punch trying to punch through Mirri card) and I have to say I prefer this one hands down. I bought it from here.
I cut the dove from pale lilac glitter card and an envelope from white glitter card. I embossed the bird with a texture plate and added a purple gem for an eye. I cut special delivery from purple glittercard and adhered it to the white panel with foam pads. I added sheer ribbon, layered flower and gem swirls. I cut a shadowed stamp for the inside of the card and added a sentiment along with a punched border strip.
Carts used:
Dove- Heritage
Envelope, 'Special Delivery' , Stamp & 'With Love'-Sentimentals
Thanks for looking and have a great weekend!
