Card Design: Pattie's Creations Challenge #165…Animals

Hello there folks! I'm popping in today to announce the next challenge over at Pattie's Creations Design Challenge. This time around for Challenge #165, the theme is Animals. Whether furry, fuzzy or feathery, create a card with a creature from the animal kingdom for your chance to win this month. I'm taking the opportunity to get in another Christmas card since I have so very few this year.


General Project Info:

• This card has been created 100% digitally and then layered in a Mock Up (courtesy of Frisk Shop). I will print it out and assemble it a later date. 

FRONT

Digital Image Details:

• Dove With Branch is available for sale in Pattie's Etsy shop. You can find it by clicking on the image name. This image has been coloured digitally.

Digital Embellishments:

• Background in behind the dove and the sentiment was created with a sky background purchased in a time limited bundle from Mix Pix Box via DealJumbo.
• I have used shapes designed by Marisa Lerin, Pixel Scrapper in behind the image and sentiment.

Digital Sentiment Details: 

• The sentiments used on the front is from the Christmas Cardinal set designed by Deedee's Digis. Website no longer active.

INSIDE

Digital Sentiment Details:

OVERALL
Digital Paper Products:

• The paper used as a background on the front and inside are from my A Grungy Christmas Mini Kit.
