Anita (snietje) provided a marvelous technique for a book card for her Let's Take a Book Tickle a Teapotter challenge.
See here for the cover.
Followed Anita's template for frame and cover. Sponged gold ink on side of frame and splattered on frame front. Stamped the IO book bg on parchment and sponged with Distress inks to age. Stamped a 2nd image on white CS, fussy cut and colored some for book stacks. Stamped, colored with colored pencils, aged with Distress ink and fussy cut story book images and adhered to book bg on top of book stacks. Stamped text bg on white, sponged with Distress inks then stamped and embossed sentiment, stamped fairies in gray. Splattered on gold ink. Layered panel and frame on cardbase. Sized LOTV Story Time image to fit, colored with alcohol markers and colored pencils, fussy cut and adhered to frame. Had so much fun making this! TFL

How adorable on the inside! Your little images are delightful and convey the magic that books portray. The little girls are so sweet (I just got some LOTV digis during their last hurrah)...anyone would love getting this...hmmm.... am crossing my fingers

This is delightful. Love the touches of gold scattered artfully around the books' pages. Charming little girls, but it's the Christopher Robin parade that warms my heart. The little snippets of fairy tales just add to the charm.

Miss Carla I didn't expect this when I clicked on the inside (I was thinking 'gardening'). How utterly adorable and gorgeous. I keep scrolling back for another look and everytime I do I see somethings missed. Pure magic my friend. Hole you had great fun at craft camp. Xx

Mother Goose, Winnie the Pooh, Peter Rabbit - all great childhood favourites bringing back so many memories. Love the vintage look you've given that wonderful IO backgrounder. Straight into my favourites. And wasn't it a fun tutorial!

There you go again...I just love how you use this bookshelf. I've had it several years now and haven't used it yet. I love how you spotlighted a few books. This is an awesome card.
