I haven't had a chance to make cards as my family vacationed last week. Wanted to make a card for my mom as she battles with complications from her failed reconstruction surgeries after breast cancer. She loves to display my cards and this tent card will make that simple! I'm playing along with the CAS challenge to make a tent or easel card CAS 181- Tent Card 7/30/12 by resqbarbie at Splitcoaststampers and this is also for Lydia's DTGD challenge (check out the fun here Forums at Splitcoaststampers) I followed Beate's tutorial and made it CAS. I started with my card base in Whisper White. It is really subtle and hard to photograph, but I stamped the Script bg in Whisper White on the inside of the card. I cut my circle out and cut a larger circle frame for the outside. My Scripture is stamped in Onyx centered in the circle. I punched my flowers from glossy white cs with the MS hydrangea punch and added pearl centers. I punched fronds in Vellum. My dragonfly was stamped in Whisper White onto vellum and embossed with white ep. I added glitter glue to the wings and body.
