Here is a card I made for Saturday's Inspiration Challenge. We were to get inspired from the Cake Nouveau website... What beautiful cakes. It was a hard choice, but I finally decided on - Antiquity -shown on page 5, row 5, third one, http://www.cakenouveau.com/cakes5.html
So this is what I did:
Base card is Chocolate Chip. Next layer is Summer Sun, and then I added a layer of artsy.licious Fine Engraved - Chocolate DP. The sentiment, from On Your Birthday, is stamped with Chocolate Chip on Barely Banana and then cut with nestabilities and layered on Summer Sun cut with nestabilities. Stamped Brocade Basics in Green Galore on Green Galore. Cut out the leaves and then spaced around the sentiment. Added prima flowers, brads and ribbon.
Great challenge... tfl.
