I used a beautiful Hero Arts stamp set that I won from Simon Says Stamp recently to create the flower and stamped panels. I went with Electric Blue, Bashful Blue, silver and white for my color scheme. The flower was stamped 3 times with Versarmark and embossed with silver ep, cut out & popped up on foam tape for dimension. The scalloped circle was die cut from silver metallic card stock, but the camera doesn't pick up that shine very well. The bottom panel was stamped with Ballet Blue on bashful blue card stock, and I added some silver beads here and there, as well as to the center of the flower.
Here's the open view of this easel card that I combined with the above sketch for the Art Impressions Stamp challenge #71. Their challenge is to create an easel card, or a card with more than one fold. For the bottom panel, I embossed with silver ep on electric blue card stock, adding a SB fancy tags two die cut with a SU! sentiment. I added 2 large silver brads to the ends, and popped this up on foam tape to hold the card open. I used a CB swiss dots ef for the white panel and some ribbon from my stash.
Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping everyone!
