Easter Dove

I can't believe I'm already thinking about Easter... but can't help it when I see this awesome tag made by Debbie Henderson using the new Easter Dove stamp, again in the Occasions Mini Catalog.

To make the tag, just start out with a small tag from "Lots of Tags" and stamp the image in "Concord Crush Ink". Use an Exacto Knife to cut out the inside of the dove and "Stampin' Dimensionals" to glue the tag to a 2nd layer. The 2nd layer is "Peach Parfait Cardstock" cut out with the "2 1/2" Scallop Circle Punch". Add a small flower cut from the "Punch Pack" in "Concord Crush Cardstock" and add a "Rhinestone Jewel" to the center of the flower and also to the inside of the cut-out dove.

For the other end of the tag, use the "Little Leaves Die" and "Old Olive Cardstock". Accent the leaves with the same flowers as were used on the dove. Add a few smaller tags from the "Jewelry Tag Punch" and "Peach Parfait Cardstock":

For the main tag use the "Two Tags Die" in "Whisper White Cardstock" and the "Background Plates" to add some swirls to the background. You'll be excited to know tht the additional ribbon used here is available to you as a FREE product in the Sale-A-Bration Catalog this year! Glue everything in place and this is what your tag will look like:
