It's the 15th mid month and time for another ABC Challenge. Our Challenge this month is F for Fancy Folds. We're sponsored by the amazing Aurora Wings.
For my inspiration for you today I've created a easel card using two of Mitzi images Miyabi and Pansy Corner
The images have been coloured using a combination of Copics, ProMarkers and polychromos pencils. All three images have been fussy cut to mount onto the card.
I've used a similar shape card and cut it down in size by hand before distressing the edges and them using some milled lavender ink for Tim Holtz. You can see this better below.
Here's a close up of the flower arrangement on the bottom of the easel. The flower are all from Wild Orchid Crafts. You can also see a close up of the tiny silver dragonfly charms I've used.
You can also see the pale purple gems I've used at various point to embellish.
These are pictures of the full card at a couple of angles so you can see the easel better.
From the final two photos you can see I've cut a rectangle for the bottom section and also distressed it before adding the flower arrangement.
Looking forward to seeing your fancy fold cards
