Twist of Faith Card Challenge # 46 - Gate Fold Card

Have you ever had one thing in mind and then when you get to your craft table, something completed different is created?  That's what happened to me today.  Since it's Tuesday, it's a new challenge day at Twist of Faith Card Challenges

 The challenge this week is Gate Fold Cards and our sponsor is Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps.  I was able to use the image called "Gilded Christmas Dove".  Honestly, I had every intent of making a Christmas theme card.  Before I headed to the craft room I had visions of red and green...or even navy blue with silver accents.  When I sat down at the table, the first piece of cardstock I saw in front of my face was pink - and thus the Christmas theme went out the door.  Yes, pink could be a Christmas color...but as it went along, it just lost that Christmas feel.  I colored the dove with Spica Glitter pens to give it some glitz.  The paper and ribbon were from my stash, as was the bling.  At first I was just going to do the little bling dots.  But then the pink flowers were there too and I just had to add them as well.  This is what I ended up with:

 
In the end I was very happy with how it turned out.  Gate Fold cards are so much fun.  The possibilities are endless!!!  So why not join us this week at Twist of Faith - you could be the winner of 5 images from our sponsor!
 
                                      
 
I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
