First Communion or Religious Occasion - PinkCompleted by Margaret McCartney

I printed the design onto good quality 255gsm photographic paper and cut it out. I attached the back of the design to white card and cut the card to match the shape of the design.

I added the gatefold doors to the white card using strong double sided tape.

I then added the insert to the inside of the card using double sided tape. The insert hides the joins where the doors are attached. I added the inside of the doors using strong double sided tape. I assembled the pyramid using thin foam tape.

I made fine cuts to the wings of the dove and then I added the dove to the front of the card using thin foam tape plus a blob of silicone glue to give a more realistic effect.

I added glitter to the wings of the dove and to the cross on the outside of the other door.

I added the greeting using thin foam tape. This gorgeous card also has a matching envelope. A beautiful card when completed.

A huge thank you to Mary for designing this card for me.
