Thinking of you- dove sympathy card

Print a sheet of cloudy sky backing paper onto ivory cardstock. Use low-tack tape to secure the stencil to the background panel and run through the die-cutting machine using the embossing mats and plates.

Blend Distress Ink through the stencil then remove the stencil.

Tape the stencil to a smaller piece of backing paper and ink three birds. Cut out the inked shapes.

Trim the larger background panel to a 14.5cm square and layer onto black cardstock. Use 3D foam pads to attach to the card blank then add the three birds down the right-hand side as shown.

Stamp the sentiment onto white cardstock, trim and layer onto black cardstock then attach to the card front to finish.
