The above picture is the card closed. I thought the colors Not Quite Navy, Rose Red and Black looked really stunning together. Not sure if the Sahara Sand fits, or if it's just the dots I don't like. Anyways...

This shows the card with the flip up. That piece isn't glued, it's just attached with a brad. The rest of the card is glued shut, so the only opening you see is this little bit where I put the saying and flowers (in silver)

Here's the close up!
I did a few fun techniques with this card.
1) Faux Denim - just ink the paper directly with the ink pad. I really love how this looks with Not Quite Navy ink on paper.
2) Rock n Roll - The main image is actually 3 stamps put together, from the set Simply Said. The solid heart stamp I inked with Regal Rose and stamped off. Then I inked the edges again with the Rock N Roll technique and stamped.
3) Paper Piecing - I stamped the flower/heart stamp again and cut out two little flowers to glue on top of the original one.
4) Medallion - I used two different edge punches to punch all 4 sides of a 2-1/2" square and layered them. Fun look I think!
5) The card fold - whatever its called!
This is the second card my card club will be making at our next meeting. Thanks for looking!
