In our zoom meeting we did a new to me technique we made a floating book card, I had never seen one before, you can google and a whole bunch will come up so I won't try to remember all that we did. The front oval pattern is one we did using a background stamp, I still have the outer piece to use on another card. Stamped the image and colored with my markers ahead of time the stamp came with a die to cut it out. I added the sentiment and the butterflies after our zoom, didn't have time to finish it that night.
Here is the inside when you open it up.
And here is a picture of the mechanism that helps it pop out when you open the card, there is one on each side, it keeps it suspended from the base of the card. I don't know any other way of saying it :)
- Cottage Cutz - Violets Flower stamp and die set, colored w/markers
- Fun Stampers Journey- Canvas prints stamp (oval piece on front of card
- P13 - Sweet Garden papers
- Hot off the press - Life Happens Greetings stamp (front and inside greetings)
- Martha Stewart - Butterfly punch
- Recollections - gems

Wonderful. Takes time and patience.
God bless.
This is such a beautiful design. I love what you have done with the images and the colors
This is a cool fold for a card! I've never heard of a floating book card, so I'll definitely have to search it up. Gorgeous papers and stamping. I like the colors too!
I've never seen that fold, but it's so pretty! xoxo
This is really pretty.. the detail.. beautifully done.
Hi Connie, well this is new to me, and I love your results. Must try a floating book card... your colors and design are just beautiful. So glad you added this beauty to The Flower Challenge Gallery.
It's so fun to see all the different ideas for making different styles of cards. This one is so cool in how the middle part "floats" out of the card. And it's so pretty too. Can't wait to see what you do next :)
