Somehow I missed the last Jingle Belle prompt and I'm just kind of sneaking in at the last minute with this one. Phew! The theme is Peace on Earth and I had such high aspirations for this card. Instead of going into a long-winded explanation, I'll just say that I need to investigate how to use masking fluid a little more - and probably investigate one that is not so SMELLY! Thankfully I had colored a second image so I was able to get this together after work today.
The dove is from SU's Dove of Peace and colored with Zig Clear Color Markers. The sentiment is from Stampendous "Glory to God". It was stamped with VersaMark and embossed with white EP which is looking very vanilla to me in IRL. Does anyone know if this yellows after a while unused?
I actually do love the colors of this, I just wanted the dove to be in a watercolor cloud. Oh well, maybe next time.

DeleteWell done on managing to sneek in a card at the last minute, which is something I tend to do all the time. And sometimes I miss the deadline because my card won't come together. I do love your coloured bird, even if it isn't what you set out to create.

ReplyDeleteGlad you like it!
DeleteThe dove here is so beautiful, a wonderful Christmas card!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine. I'm so far behind on my Christmas cards - gotta start making up for lost time.
DeleteThe white sentiment on blue is so striking and looks really great. I find the liquid masking fluid messy, it's hard to apply with precision and cleaning the brush is a right royal pain. For small areas I find the MasquePen (Dick Blick sells them) to be quite good.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sabrina. I'm going to have to give that one a try.
