The patterned paper that I used for my card is from HOTP 3257: " Mixing Light papers".
I used the MS "Flower petals" border punch along the diagonal cut.
The image "Snoesje" is from Hetty Meeuwsen.
You can lift the flap with the image to write a personal message.
The sentiment stamps are from Marianne design.
I decorated further the inside of my card with dies from Magnolia "DH #26 Heart Swirl" .
The little flowers on the swirls are made with the floral punches set from Nellie Snellen : FLP034 .
Here is a link on how these punches work : punching and embossing !!! http://www.nellies-choice.nl/index.p...l-punch/uitleg
I added Rhinestones in the hearts of these little flowers.
The grass beneath the swirls is made with the MS grass punch.
The belt is decorated with a large paper flower and and a little label ( punch ).
The leaves( FLP031) and the flower are made with punches from Nellie Snellen.

This is gorgeous!! I do love the pretty blue and those great scallops. I will have to check out the tutorial as I would love to make one of these. (have a feeling it will be long on the to do list also.) Love that it has that beautiful belt. Expertly crafted.

This is such a gorgeous creation! I do love everything about it except if it's closed up the sentiment is not on the front of the card where it needs to be for The Perfect Sentiment challenge. I hope you'll come back and join us again.

I just left your blog and the tutorial is written so good. Both of your cards are gorgeous and I plan on making a double zig zag card. Thanks so much for the instructions.

Wow! What a beautiful card!! It's going in my favorites. I really like the way you did that fold and the die cuts along the top are the perfect touch. Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at Word Art Wednesday.
