I've made this card for the challenge over at DP2 which asks for special folds and flowers, although I'm not sure it can be classed as a card. I've used the instructions from the fabulous Stampartic blog and they call it a tea-light card so hopefully it will pass muster, if not - just ignore me girls.
I've used the beautiful Christmas Fairy Holly and coloured her with Copics. she is cut out with oval nesties and the edges stamped with a Magnolia New Year flourish stamp. The papers are all from SU, the flourishes cut with a Marianne creatable, the pearls are Prima marketing and the flower Wild Orchid crafts. The ribbon and lace are both from my stash.
This is the inside of the card with a pocket and tag one one side and the tea-light box on the other. Please excuse the pink tea-lights, I went to the shop to get some creamy one and came back with everything but.
Bad memory - who me???
All the edges are inked with Vintage photo distress ink , and this is the back of the card and I will stamp something on the oval when I decided who the recipient is.
This is the side of the card and I've just realised, seeing it on screen I should have put a strip of dp down the edge of the spine - ooops!!
Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend, mine would be better if Mr Blogger would stop leaving me silly messages and let me move around blogland a little better, a lot better.
