It's always handy to have some cards by hand to use when necessary...
I made this card, using again an old card model from Petra van Dam .
I think its called a "Coat" card because a large piece of paper is wrapped along the main image like a coat.
To decorate the top of the main image I used Anja's large flower corner die and sponged the embossed area's.
My PP's are from HOTP: "Sara papers-4114.
The images are from an old decoupage sheet (Mattie), cut by hand into several layers and popped up with foam tape.
I did not glue the main image to the backside of the coat so I could insert a tag with a personal message. (see second little photo).
For further embellishments I just used large pearls and purple gems.
