Jingle Belles want to see something new either from Santa or that we gifted ourselves. Those of you who know me well know that I love blue. I treated myself to some gorgeous blue / silver gilding flakes. I also bought a set of lovely rectangle dies from The Greetery.
I die cut the dove and coated it with glue and then pressed in the beautiful blue / silver mix of gilding flakes. I added it to a panel trimmed with the fancy rectangle die and layered that over blue cs to have some colour showing through the rectangle die. The sentiment is stamped with Versamark and heat embossed with a pearly blue embossing powder.

ReplyDeleteThe dove is beautiful! I always make such a mess with the gilding flakes!
ReplyDeleteWell done using the new flakes and die so quickly, Susan! This card is gorgeous and I can only imagine how spectacular the schparkle is in person, not to mention the beautiful blue of the dove and the base blue peeking through the border! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Happy New Year Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful dove, Susan! Love those blue and silver gilding flakes and the pretty die cut frame!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful crafting and stunning , gorgeous design. Such beautiful colours xx
ReplyDeleteSanta was so good to you. I love the blue and silver gilding flakes. The dove looks beautiful and the die cut rectangle is on my wish list now.
ReplyDeleteThat lovely dove looks amazing on that frame with the darker blue peeking through! I have some lovely gilding flakes - though not quite as lovely as these - now I just need the courage to try them out! I have been watching Chrissie Stokes videos but your gorgeous card may be just the inspiration I needed!
ReplyDeleteWow, what an amazing dove coated with blue & silver gilding flakes, Susan! It's absolutely gorgeous! Love that the blue shows through the slytlish die-cut frame.
