Bathing Beauties Card

 Hello everyone.  It's Celeste here with the last in my series of Bathing Beauties.  I have created a card to match my layout and tags.  I hope you enjoy.

Firstly I started off with 6x6 card stock and folded it at the top so the card could be lifted up.  I then used the French Flair-Classic dies to create the base of the card.  I used the French Pastry Doily under the picture just so the edges could be seen.  

I made the small flowers out of the Miniature Rose die and just popped them on top of the Fanciful Flourish and inked and stickled them.  

The main flower is made up of the Judy's Blooms die with the leaves and the Pair of Ferns resting on top  of the French Pastry Doily.  I put the Dragonfly on the left hand upper side of the card and inked and stickled it too.

 This is the inside of the card. I, again, used the French Flair-Classic Die to look like the outside of the card.  I used one of the smaller dies of the French Flair-Classic dies to make a place to write or stamp a saying or whatever you would like to put in.

  For the flower, I just used the inside of the Heartland America Large die and the Heartland America XL die and popped both doily's together with the petals of the Judy's Blooms  on top.  With the Fanciful Flourish underneath and another Miniature Rose, I finished the inside of the card.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you had a Happy and Safe New Year.  All the best for 2012.

Bathing Beauties

Hello everyone, it's Celeste here again to share with you my latest project.

It is the first in a series of three projects that I have been working on.  I hope you like it!

This first project is an 8x8 layout.  I first found this paper and it gave me the idea to use the French Flair-Classic LG Stackers in addition with using the French Flair-Classic - Silver Stackers .  I nestled  these two together and then popped my picture in the middle, whilst surrounding the picture with the dies.

I used the Stacker Flowers #5, the Stacker Flowers #6 and Judy's Blooms for the main flower.  The  Pair of Ferns, Victorian Romance Flourish and  Judy's Blooms Leaves

were all cut out, inked, stickled  and put under to create the greenery.

Up on the top left hand corner I made two small flowers using the  Miniature Rose die combined with the Stacker Flower #1 Leaf.  These too were inked and stickled.

Finally I added a Small Dragonfly with Angel Wings to the top right hand corner.  I was originally going to leave this space alone, but when I looked more closely it felt like it needed something.  After playing around I found the dragonfly and I think it looks perfect!
