Triple Challenge in White


Oh, how I love a card that multi-tasks!  This one is for three different challenges.  Our Creative Corner challenge was to make an entirely white card with decorative edges.  Merry Monday #46 said to make a Christmas card using a bird.  And the last challenge is the sketch from Retro Sketches #47.
I started by trimming the right edge of the card with my Scallop Eyelet Border punch.  Then I ran a piece of white through the Big Shot with my Vintage Wallpaper EF.  I rolled my brayer through some Illuminate ink and lightly rolled it onto the embossed panel.  It gave the raised part a little glimmer and shine.  I punched the bird out with my Bird Builder punch, spritzed the body with shimmer spray and inked the wing with more Illuminate ink.  Next, I cut out the swirl and "Peace" with decorative strip dies.  The swirls got yet more Illuminate ink and the "Peace" was embossed with Iridescent Ice EP.  The last thing was to add a strip of Silver Glimmer paper and some more Scalloped Border punched pieces to the top and bottom of the main panel.  I love the way this turned out...I've always been a sucker for an all white card!




Thanks for taking a peek!
