WT528 - This week's challenge is all about the inners....inside of the card, and how we finish our envelopes.
SC537 - This weeks sketch challenge.
Baby Bella was stamped and colored with copics and stickels added to give her some shine. The pink and white flowers are hand made the white rose was bought. The card is a Z fold When folded Bella covers the inside. The inside has a DP then a doily then the white for the sentiment. Then the card closes with a ribbon and the flowers on the inside can be seen on the outside too when opened or closed. Two additional flowers were made for the envelope to match Bella's flower. and the envelope flap has a piece of the same DP. The difficulty is higher on this due to the creation of the very tiny flowers and getting everything to line up correctly when opened or closed.
I do have to say a small story about this card. This card took nearly a full day to put together and I am very glad this was not for the tortoise or hare challenge. My DH did not want me to get 2nd degree burns again making tiny flowers. So he went to the store and I put the small pink/white flowers together while he was gone. He came home with 7 packages of small flowers for me after I had put together the 4 pink and white so I added the small white flower to the card because he went out of his way for me. Sorry ladies, he has no brothers and I am keeping him.
Thanks for looking. I look forward to seeing your cards this week.

This will be a keepsake for sure...love how everything coordinates with each other. Lovely presentation for the challenge. The Z- fold looks fantastic with the sweet image. You have so much detail on all the items. Beautifully done.

How sweet! Both the card and your hubby! My hubby is kinda (ok, a lot) nutty. He wants to do things like sign up here as justwrongdesigns and post ...well I can't say what cause he doesn't make anything. He also wants to heat an entire jar of embossing powder in the jar. Right. Like I'm going to let him. NOT!

Lisa, this is absolutely darling. Makes me wish I had a baby at my house to hug. Nice hubby, too.
