Fun challenge! I think everything except the bg is stacked on this one. I did a variation of the Center Step Card for this but I made a few changes. Mine is not directly in the center- it's offset to the left. And the narrower center pop out section has another fold at the same place the rest of the card folds. I had to add this because the beach scene covers up the opening behind the girl. I also added more of the foreground beach grass to the bottom 'step'.
Everything was colored w/ markers. The finished card measures 5.5 x 5.5 (at the tallest point). All images are Innovative Stamp Creations and just released! Close ups of this are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, I had to go right to your blog to see a few more views of this amazing card. I could stare at this all day. It takes me right to the beach with the wind in my hair. These images are so lovely. If I get brave I will try to recreate this in some way. Such an inspiration...

Julie, your card is absolutely GORGEOUS!! The layers, the coloring, the layout all give it a magical quality. Love the pensive feeling I get from your girl as she looks out over the sea. It is truly breath-taking!
