Elements of Style CARD


I made this card last night while I was in the middle of creating a vintage scrapbook page.  It is pretty clean and simple.  I used Sahara Sand, Pretty in Pink and Very Vanilla Cardstock.  Soft Suede and Pretty in Pink ink.  Pretty in Pink satin ribbon, Jewels Basic Pearl, Mini Vintage Tags, Tiny Tags and Elements of Style stamp sets.  I distressed the edges of all cardstock and then sponged using Soft Suede ink.  I added a bit of Dazzling Diamonds to the dove, but due to my poor photography skills, it is difficult to see.
