Hello dear blogging friends: This is a friendly reminder from THE FLOWER CHALLENGE, we are at the half point mark for the SHAPE CARDS CHALLENGE in which we are asking you to create cards with other fun shapes besides squares and rectangles.
So this is my Designer Team card that I created using the diamond fold technique, following THIS VIDEO TUTORIAL I found on Linda Bauwin's blog called STAMPING WITH LINDA.
This images are from a retired Flourishes set called "Water Lilies" and it's truly beautiful. I stamped the image on watercolor paper with Stazon black ink and colored it with Sakura Koi watercolors, SU markers and Prismacolor pencils. The sentiment is from the set. I stamped the big and small Lily Pads on the side panels and then, stamped the Lotus buds on scrap pieces of watercolor paper, colored them the same way and fussy cut them, propping them up with foam dimensionals.
********************************************************************
This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
The brad holds this little door to the main panel so you just swing it open to read the sentiment.
There is enough room in the "inside" panel to write a short little message.
I would like to play along with the following challenges.
Quick Quotes Challenge #86 Theme "Include a Fold"
All Sorts Challenge Week #463 "Spring Flowers or Showers"
