Good day and Happy Friday to you all.
Are you ready for the weekend? Hopefully the rain will stop and it will warm up a little!
We have a very excited little girl waiting for her big day tomorrow.
It's our youngest granddaughter's 1st Holy Communion so of course I had to make her a special card.
I coloured Mo Mannings adorable image called 1st Communion Girl and she can be found here.
I used C2, C1, C00 for the dress, veil, gloves and shoes.
Martha Steward Punch-Around-the-Page Cherish punch used to create the shape.
I had to adjust the box size to 6 3/4 inch square to accomodate the larger card.
The lace is an old piece from Wild Orchid Crafts and the banner is a hAnglar stamp that was stamped and heat embossed with silver. Sentiment is created in Word.
The flower is from my stash...several years old so I'm afraid I do not know the mfg. The die is a Joy Craft. Image cut using Spellbinders standard small circles and Scallop circles.
Box front has a circle cut using Martha Stewart's new Circle punch, topped with two Spellbinder Blossom Two flowers and finished with another pre-made flower from my stash.
Inside sentiments created in Word,
Wording from SCS forum
cut using Spellbinder Small Oval and Beaded Oval
Pink vellum used on the bottom panel.
A .50 cent stamp from Michaels used to create the cross, stamped with Versamark then heat embossed with Silver embossing powder.
The silver dp used was a clearance at Michaels...15 cents a sheet and I've used all three I picked up. Hows that for clearing out :)
Sorry for such a heavy photo post. This really did take me a long time to create but definitely a labour of love.
