I've finally cut into this beautiful Green Tea paper. I bought it when the fall catalog came out last year. These challenges are really good for me - I'm actually using my hoards of paper.
I don't have Not Quite Navy ink, so I improvised by inking with Old Olive and stamping off. Then inked with Night of Navy to stamp the final image.

This is divine. I love 'en Francis' on the Old Olive CS in the BG, it sets of the Green Tea DSP so beautifully. Love the finishing touches of the paper piercing and pearls too.

I'm totally amazed at how you thought about how to cut into your paper. Your 2 panels are perfect in terms of paper placement. Whoa, this is one gorgeous card. It's just phenomenal especially with those pearls and piercing. Oh my, creativity at its finest, let me assure you.
