Papercraft Star Challenge #7


The Papercraft Star Challenge Blog offered up a photo inspiration for challenge #7. I went through several ideas before I settled on this little easel card. I think I may be hooked now that I know how easy they are. Lots of layering here and the yellow accents in the inspiration photo drew my eye so I rifled through my flower collection to find these little yellow Primas. Luckily I had some buttons to match! I wanted to put a Bible verse on this card so I found one I liked and printed it out on my computer. A couple of Nestie dies and voila!
Supplies
Paper: Cherry Arte, DCWV, Bazzill, Recollections
Tools: Nestabilities Labels Two (S4-162)
Miscellaneous: Prima roses, buttons, hemp, Offray ribbon, Recollections adhesive pearls, brown fiber
Hope you've decided to play along with us this week. Make sure you get your project submitted by noon(EST) on Saturday, then come back between then and Monday night to cast your vote for your favorite entry. We've seen lots of great projects in our challenges so far. Come show us what you've got!
Blessings,

I just love having Word to print out whatever you want for your card... Beautiful easel card, and I really like the grownup approach. You always make such precise cards, do your fingers ever get dirty ? Everything always looks so pristine...
