This is my card for Lydia's first HYCCT2014 challenge "You Raise Me Up" - paper tole. SHe gave us an excellent video to follow, which I didn't do. I confess to totally cheating and using a pre-colored and die cut flower from K&Company. But I did form the layers and leaves with my stylus and layer together using a dimensional adhesive called Scrap Dots - weird stuff! I hand wrote the sentiment with soft pastels and sprayed with a fixative before attaching the patterned paper to the card base. I attached the flower with foam tape and the leaves with Glossy Accents, and added a sequin to the flower center.
As always, thanks for looking!
