The Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge from this week was to cut images out and pop them up. I thought it was time to ink up these three chairs, and decided to go for a CAS card.
I embossed an oval frame on a plain white A2 card, and stamped the image once in the frame. I stamped it again on another sheet of white card. I coloured both sets of images with H2Os and cut out the second set. I also stamped the cushion areas of the image again onto patterned scraps - pale pink for the heart cushion, and some BG Euphoria for the one on the comfy leather chair. The chairs and cushions were both popped up with thin foam tape. I added Liquid Pearls round the outer embossed oval, and added some swirly organza ribbon with a ribbon slide.
The inside has the *A house needs these chairs...* stamped on another embossed oval.
TFL.

Wow Sabrina~ that is some fine paper piecing right there! You have made a simple card that looks so elegant! What a gift. I love that ribbon! I have it in four colors. Yummy, isn't it? The liquid pearls are magic on your oval. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work!
