Cafe Mojo Fruity Chai Challenge for 2-23

This is my project for yesterday's Cafe Mojo Fruity Chai Challenge. The colors for this challenge are pink and orange, and I was fortunate enough to have some really pretty paper in these colors to make this card! I also had this beautiful textured flower given to me by a friend (thanks Jordi!) and I think it really finishes off this card. The background is the patterned paper cut into squares then matted onto textured cardstock. I used the large Baroque Motify from Stampin' Up! which I then heat embossed in metallic gold. The image is double matted. I used an SVG cutting file from myscrapchick to make the scalloped square for the bottom mat.

The inside is finished with the same patterned paper. Again, I used a stamp from the Baroque Motif set, heat embossed in gold metallic and punched using the scallop punch from Stampin' Up! The same image is used on the front of the box envelope.

I used a coordinating patterned paper to line the inside of the box envelope and attached a velcro dot as a closure.

I hope you like this pretty card! Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs!

  1. I can't decide what is prettier! The card outside, the card inside or the envelope! Everything is absolutely stunning! I adore the mosaic feel to the background and the gorgeous flower on the front! The inside is equally stunning I adore how you line your envelope! anyone would be honored to receive this!
