...what an amazing gallery Bev has! I have never created a card with a dozen layers...until today, that is! Thanks for introducing us to this stamper Beth. I really liked the layout for this card. It is a large card, mine is 5.5" square. I changed the colors, papers, stamps, added the velvet blossom. I kept the layout, the stitching, paper piercing and the nested shapes.
I did use Basic Grey's Urban Prairie, I went with the pink ranges. My card base is GP white. I used SU pink pirouette for the solid mats and paper pierced the smaller edge. The charming House Mouse image is stamped with Memento tuxedo black and colored with Copics. I popped this Labels2 nested panel on foam mounting squares. The sentiment from Impression Obsession is inked with ColorBox black and embossed with clear ep. I used the circle nestabilities. As I couldn't fit it all within the cardbase, I decided to slip it in behind the mouse that is smelling very pretty! love that tiny raised up ear! I added a bit of pink lace behind the panel and then a tiny scalloped tab. I used a big, velvet pink blossom at the very top. Faux zig-zag rubon's finish the edge of my morning glory BG paper.
So please let me know what you think..that's quite alot of layers...not my style, but SO beautiful in the hands of our Featured Stamper, BevR. Enjoy your day of recognition here on SCS!

SUSAN! Sister, I muist say, this is my fav! I love every inch of this card- 'out of the box you say?' I think you have now got another 'box' to choose to be in! The image is the cutest HM ever, and your layers are fabulous! And then you top it all of with Ralph Waldo Emerson. Aw...a fresh breeze for the eyes! Completely lovely!
