Saw something on Pinterest yesterday but did not stop to take it all in or see if there were any instructions. Today decided to give it a go, but without going back to the Pinterest prompt. What I thought I saw was a gatefold card where the right hand fold is a circle.
Came up with this.
The buff card was some left over from a previous play, it just needed trimming to make it tidy. The Butterfly stamped onto another scrap of white card and the hinge (which you might just see a little of on the closed version) a small scrap of gold mirror card.
All the stamps are from an old Elusive Images set, looked but could not see it on the current Chocolate Baroque site. A couple of the stamps have not been used before, the Thistle head on the topper, the panel on the inside and the floral flourish design used as background. All stamping done with Stayzon in Purple and Brown, all colouring with Whisper Pens, all fussy cutting by my hand!
This card did take a little while to work out, stamp, cut, colour and construct but I am pleased with the result. Just have to go back to Pinterest now to see how it should have been done!

As you Like it - Rubber, Clear, or Digi and Why. Rubber preferably wood mounted will always to No 1 for me. Look after them and they will last for ever, the designs available, including all the back catalogs is vast and pretty much un-limited. Un-mounted rubber next then clear but I do not own a single digi or ink for my printer.

I can't believe this. I was just thinking about you. I haven't joined in a challenge for years (many moons ago if you remember) and I didn't know how to add a link and thought "where's Zoe?". Anyway, I was just checking if it worked and saw your name. How strange is that. Gorgeous card. Hope all is well. Hugs Flo xx
