Used Spellbinders labels 25 and some want2scrap pearl bling - inspired by Chupa's card!
Card base was created by folding a piece of cardstock in half and running through with the long, top part of the largest die in this set set slightly off of the fold. A good video showcasing this here, starting at 3:01 - her hinge is on the side, the hinge for my project is at the top. To conceal the hinge, using the same color cardstock as the shaped card base, I diecut a unit using (again) the largest one in the set, and simply adhered it to the card front.
Flower is from Prima; sentiment is from A Muse. Solid cardstock colors are from Bazzill Card Shoppe (Easter Grass and Lollipop) and the adorable patterned paper is Bazzill's Avalon 6x6 multipack.
Pretty pink ribbon is a new crochet from May Arts.
To ship this type of card with depth/dimension, I created a simple, tube-style envelope with a piece of sheet music, and will mail the unit housed inside a bubble envelope. Thanks for looking!
Beautiful! But of course, I'm a pearl fan, so this blows me away. I also think the music envelope is as delightful as the card. Does the card slip in the tube, and then the front closes over it? A little hard to tell from the picture. But I love every part of this, especially the whimsy of "Just a Note" on an elaborate card.
