This is for the new Dirty Dozen Christmas Challenge is up in the Fan Club Forum. This months challenge is May I *Case* you. Pick any creation in the gallery to case and create a Christmas card. Make sure we have a link to the creaiton you choose so we can see the original work. Remember to put keywords SCSCCFEB13 when you load to SCS so we can see your creation.
There is so many beautiful creations I would love to case so this was hard to choose. However I choose Sandee's Dove creation to case found HERE. Sandee has a beautiful and classy style that I have appreciated for years. I first stamped out my Dove and Holly onto classic white cardstock using memento tuxedo black ink. I colored the doves with copic collections Flesh tones, cool neutrals, green grass and dahlia. Once colored I die cut my circle using Spellbinders Standard Circles as well die cut my framed shape using Picot Circles that I layered in the light blue of Color made easy true blue collection.
Layered some of the remaining Echo Park Winter Wishes paper onto more Color Made Easy True Blue papers. Then layered my white crochet lace ribbon down the center with some Color Made Easy True Blue Sky Blue ribbon down the center that I tied off with some ivory jute and a ivory button bow center. Layer my dove panel in the center and add some snow white kaiser pearls to the edge. Voila!
