Hey there! As many of you probably already know, I participate in the Mediterranean Achiever's Blog Hop near the end of every month. Anywhere from 25-40 Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the globe who have achieved the Grand Vacation Incentive Trip share a project. For the January hop Kirsteen Gill created a "Fancy Fold" card and included a free tutorial. I used her tutorial for today's card. I used a Rose Red card base, Botanical Builders Framelits, Timeless Elegance Designer Paper, and phrases from Suite Sayings and All Boxed Up!
This card is 5 1/4" x 5 1/4" square, so I created a custom-envelope with the Envelope Punch Board. I cut my paper 9" x 9".
I used Botanical Builder framelits with Rose Red, Blushing Bride, Basic Black, and Mossy Meadow for the flowers and leaves.
I colored rhinestones with a black Sharpie for the flower centers and sponged Rose Red and Blushing Bride ink on the blooms for more depth.
Here's a link to download Kirsteen's free tutorial: http://www.creatinwithkirsteen.com/home/mediterranean-achievers-january-blog-hop
This card looks complicated, but just follow the tutorial to create the framework, then add embellishments!
