Tricky photo session

This is my first attempt at a pivot card, had to happen sometime - and I'm actually quite pleased with how it came out, even though it took an age to make.  AND it was extremely awkward to photograph!
The image is a new rubber stamp I got from Lili of the Valley but I can't see it on their website anymore.  It's been coloured with ProMarkers.  I then drew round the shape for the pivot section to cut it out to fit.

Behind this you can also see some purple design paper which I also hand cut to fit.

The sentiment if from a Lili of the Valley art pad.

I've also used some lilac gems.

This is the first photo that shows the card opening.

Here's your just starting to see the interior

This final shot shows the interior of the card.  All the design papers were from Lili of the Valley as well :D
