Christmas Doves

Good Morning all.

Well today im sharing a set of CAS Christmas cards, these are flat and A6 size.  The star wreath shape is cut into the cardfront and i added a bright insert to shine through and give the effect of stars, so I went with orange and yellow - yes unusual Christmas colours but you know me.  

A6 white linen cardblank.  I cut the star wreath die into the cardfront.  I cut a circle frame from black to frame the stars and glued to the front.  I then stamped a little dove stamp onto white card, cut into a circle and mounted onto a larger black circle and then added in the middle of the stars on foam.  

The stars are only a frame so its solid in the middle, ideal for adding a little image or sentiment.  I found this little dove stamp on a set of stamps that came with a magazine years ago.  I lightly added some grey maker around the dove to help him stand out. 

Computer printed sentiment, cut into a strip and mounted onto black card. I then added an insert from orange paper.

This image shows the card stood up and the effect of the light shining through the orange insert to give the look of stars. 

Exactly the same details just with a yellow insert.  

Again showing how the light shines through.  Simple but effective.
