Hi everyone!
I'm so happy that the CAS Christmas Challenge is back! 😊
Here's my bird card:
I realized that I have very few Christmas bird stamps or dies, so I decided to make good use of a small dove die I've had for a while.
I die-cut a dove five times from masking paper, and arranged the masks as if they were flying across the sky. I then softly ink-blended the sky over the masked doves with a blending brush. The frame and the sentiment were gold-foiled.
Looking forward to seeing your Christmas birds in the gallary!
Thanks for visiting me today!
Ink: Distress Oxide Ink (Tumbled Glass, Salvaged Patina - Ranger)

It's lovely to see you posting a card, Hideko! And what a gorgeous one it is! I love the ink blended sky and the use of the dove masks. Thank you so much for joining as the revived CAS Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so lovely, Hideko. I love how you've used your dove die in a different way to create the masks and sponged the soft turquoise overtop. So pretty!! The gold foiled frame and sentiment add some lovely shine to your design. Thanks for joining us at CAS Christmas! Love, Loll
ReplyDeleteI love the way you masked and used the dove! This is just lovely, Hideko. The gold frame sets it off nicely. Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see you posting again, Hideko! You haven't lost your touch and still have the sweetest design skill! I love these sweet doves and the foiling adds such elegance!
