Peace

Hello! I have a really pretty Christmas card to share with you today that uses a new die set from Spellbinders and Stampendous. It’s called Peace Dove, and there are many dies in it, for lots of beautiful options. This is a great card for mass production and for using up some patterned paper.

I first die cut a piece of green patterned paper from Echo Park’s Christmas Magic Paper Pad with the “tree” die. I thought the subtle swirls on the paper would look really pretty with the various leaves that come in the set. I die cut them a few times each out of gold and adhered them all over the tree. I keep whatever extras I have with the die set. I cut the “Peace” and one of the larger doves out of white cardstock. I wanted to give the word a shadow layer, so I adhered it to a piece of vellum, and cut around it when it was dry. This helps it to show more against the background.

I found another piece of Echo Park patterned paper (from the Perfect Christmas Paper Pad) for my background. I love how the white flowers work so well with the peace and the dove. I decided to pop the tree up using 3mm Foam Tape from Scrapbook.com. This really makes it stand out against the background. I opted to leave my card base white, to coordinate with the flowers, dove, and sentiment.

I think this is so elegant. This is such a pretty die set, and it’s really easy to work with. I think may of you will really enjoy using it. Please visit the Spellbinders site to see all of the latest products. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
