Dovecraft Pretty Papers

Today I would like to share a card with you that I created around the Dovecraft value paper pack 'Crowning Affair'. The colours are so pretty and attractive. And the double-sided papers make it easy to match up perfectly co-ordinated sheets.

The sentiment stamp used on this card is from the Dovecraft Sweet Paris sentiment stamp set. The dies for the frame and the tag are from the first Santoro Mirabelle die set by Trimcraft. For the embellishments I reverted to products from Trimcraft's Belle & Boo and  Sweet Paris collections.

A product list and step-by-step instructions are again in my Trimcraft gallery.

Large Santoro's Willow frame

Usually the packaging of craft products is just for the bin. But Trimcraft's Santoro products are so beautifully packaged  that even many of the wraps, boxes and cover sheets of paper pads provide great additional craft items. For this frame I turned the reverse of the cover sheet from a 6" x 6" Santoro's Willow paper pad into the focal point.

The frame I used is from IKEA's RIBBA collection. I absolutely love the square frames, as their depth allows for generous embellishments and 3D effects. I have again uploaded a list of the other products as well as step-by-step instructions to my Trimcraft gallery.
