His Grace - a Case

What a snowfall we had last night!  And more is expected tomorrow.  Certainly not the kind of weather that would put one in an Easter frame of mind.

The following card I cased from Jan Brown a UK demonstrator.  I made a few changes but not many as I really liked the look of her card.

For accurate placement, I used the stamparatus to create  a somewhat oval wreath. This was done by stamping one image upside down and the other one right side up, the two meeting in the middle.

After colouring the leaves and flowers, I cut the art piece in half with my trimmer so that I cut fussy cut the card stock out of the middle.  Some Powder Pink ruffled ribbon was placed strategically to hide this 'cut'.

The pink Vellum sheet from the Romance DSP was placed behind the front piece and it showed very nicely through the cut out area.  This was added to a top fold thick Whisper White card stock base.

The sentiment was die cut with the layering oval framelit and matted with a scallop oval piece,  and then added with dimensionals to the card front.  The dove was stamped , fussy cut and adhered just under the sentiment.  Some pink artisan pearls were added randomly around the sentiment.
