Flutter By Wednesday - Shaped Card

This week's Flutter By Wednesday challenge is to make a shaped card - no squares or rectangles allowed! :) Be sure to include your butterfly or fairy, then link it up to the FBW blog.

I decided to go with a heart card. We have a wedding to go to on Saturday, so this is for the new bride and groom. I used QuickKutz dies for the hearts and doves. The doves are cut from shimmery silver. The butterflies were punched with a Martha Stewart punch from the same silver. I used dark gray gems for the eyes of the doves and the butterflies. The stamps are from an Inkadinkado set and are embossed with silver. The stripes in the black paper are silver, also. Oh, and I put a little Versamark along the edges of the white heart and added silver embossing powder to that, too.

Edited to add: I'm linking this card up to the Designer's Choice Challenge at Repeat Impressions. The challenge this week: No Square Cards! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

This is a beautiful wedding card. How clever to use the heart shape as the base, and the doves are lovely. Very nice, indeed!
