Oh, I love this card but I think it is one you have to see in real life to appreciate! I used the sketch challenge from Technostamper's Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge #41 but it all started with little Courtney's outfit in From Courtney's Closet Inspiration Challenge #21. Check it out below!
She had some pretty flowery pants on and that's what inspired this whole card. I had some wonderful "flowery" DP that worked it's way into this card. The DP has wonderful silver flowers! I then used this wonderful silver metallic cardstock from SU! and ran a piece through my cuttlebug folder so that a couple of the little birdies showed...gotta get the birdie in there somewhere! If you have never tried SU!'s metallic cardstock, you are missing out!
The medallion was made with various layers of nestability circles and a SU! scallop punch thrown in for good measure. I used a marvy flower punch on the last circle so that some of the silver scallop would show. The brad is a misc one I had in my stash. Lots of layers here! And it also fits in the the Cuttlebug Challenge #5! I think I hit a triple with this card!
Stamps: NONE!
Cardstock: SU cranberry crisp (I think), Taken with Teal, Brushed Silver, DP is Heidi Grace shimmer foiled paper named Midnight Kisses/Mini Foil Floral (goodness what a long name for a piece of paper)
Ink: NONE
Misc: Nesties, SU! scallop punch, Marvy flower punch, misc brad (maybe Memories?), cuttlebug folder, dimensionals
