I Believe . . . Do You?

Happy Sunday all! I'm sharing my latest card for 7 Kids College Fund.  Yes!  I'm back with the NEW 7Kids Store and I'm LOVING it!  I'ts going to give me a reason to post weekly again and be sure to step away from the graphic, die and stamp designing for a few hours and believe you me, I need to stay inky and crafty!  lol   

Before I get to my card, I want to remind you that you still have a few more days to enter our current ANYTHING GOES Challenge on Challenge Blog! Be sure to link up for a chance at winning a $20 gift certificate to the 7 Kids College Fund Store!! 

I decided to step away from coloring with this project!  NO coloring!!! I decided to stencil with paste, emboss stamp and use several fabulous dies I've recently designed that you can find in the 7 kids College Fund Store!

 Just dies, stencil, decorative chipboard, a bit of clay work, feathers and patterned paper. The stamp is from Stampendous called Cling Snowy Postcard which I embossed in blue.  The sentiment is from the Merry Christmas HSN exclusive collection.  The chipboard is from Wycinanka, which I've fallen hard for!  lol  And the stencil is by Tim Holtz!

I cut the Peaceful Dove Edge die 3 times, once in grey toned paper, once in kraft for the branches and once again for the Doves in white.  Layered them and then rubbed them with Deco Arts Snowtex giving it a great sense of a snowy night.
