Congrats to my friend and fellow DDIC Team member, Anne!
I had a fun stroll through her extensive gallery and finally picked Antique Moss to case. I liked the soft color and the way the frame reminded me of icing on one of those elaborate wedding cakes. That being said, it looks like I changed most everything. I changed the colors, the image, the layout. I did keep the texture and softness of the color.
The scripture is a new image from Our Daily Bread designs. I stamped it w/ the lightning black ink and stamped the dove w/ the soft sand ink over it. If y'all saw the new Spellbinders dies last week, you would have seen a beautiful new cross die. Since I don't have that fantastic die, I tried to create my own cross by putting pieces together. I started w/ a long rectangle die and resized it. Then I cut the middle section of the Fleur de lis die and four of the individual Fleur de lis and arranged them all as shown.
I layered all the white w/ some vanilla, tan and dp. I added the ribbon and a pearl button w/ the shank removed.
Thanks so much for looking! Close ups are on my blog: The Write Stuff
