The SCS Christmas Card Challenge posts a theme for each month and I posted "peace" as the January theme so am doing a few more cards for that theme bebore the month is over.
For this one, I first stamped the dove on vellum with Versamark and heat embossed with the most amazing embossing powder I found a trip to England - it had a real electric blue shimmer to it. I fussy cut the dove. On my white panel, I stamped the dove again in Faded Jeans Distress ink as the colour was a reasonably close match. Then I layered the fussy cut dove over it just slightly offset and popped it up with dimensionals under the embossed parts so that the dimensionals wouldn't show through the vellum. I was trying to get a bit of a sense of the dove being in motion.

Wow!! This is STUNNING! Love the image with the perfect sentiment. The blue embossing is gorgeous. And I love the way you've popped up the image and off-set - definitely has movement.
