Happy Monday!! I hope you had a great weekend!! It's my turn to post on the Die-Versions Blog and I have a card to share with you using two of the dies from the newest release, as well as several other Die-Versions dies.
For my card, I created a hidden garden. The gate is the new Whispers Oriental Screen. I cut it out in foam and adhered it to the cardstock for some dimension. Thinking of You is from the Compliments Everyday die. Tucked among the Wild Orchid Crafts flowers is a Whispers Daisy Flair die, which isn't currently in stock.
Open the gate to reveal the beautiful Whispers Geisha taking a stroll with her glittered parasol. She is joined on her stroll with several critters from the Wee-Petites Buggy die set. She's staring at the Whispers Butterfly Garden die (not currently in stock). I used a hole punch on some Velcro to keep the gate closed.
I am entering this in the following challenges:
1. Little Scrap Pieces - Show if Off Saturday
2. 2 Creative Chicks - Anything Goes
3. Pause, Dream Enjoy Linky - Anything Goes
4. Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
Thanks so much for stopping by!! Have a great day :)

A stunning card Lisa! The flowers are really wonderful. Love the oriental design on the inside with the pretty Geisha, and is a great idea to use velcro to close the card. All the dies are fabulous. Brilliant as always!
ReplyDeleteThis is outstanding, I like how you used this die and the flowers are a great compliment, the subtle oriental paper is just right!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful hidden garden you have created Lisa! I love this so much. The gate on the front is amazing, love the sentiment and flowers on it as well. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw inside, so cool looking and beautiful. Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteGood to see this wonderful Oriental framework die at play again. It looks fantastic atop this delicate floral stamping, and what a perfect color to show off this stamp & die. Liking that crackled look too. Of course the lush floral bouquets that are part of your signature style - always add more icing! THEN, you made it a tri-fold, with more pretty inside. Just beautiful all the way. TFS & Hugs. Glad the storm missed your area.
DeleteOh, Wow, Lisa! That hidden garden was an unexpected surprise! Brilliant card - I love it! You have the most gorgeous papers and dies! And the flowers are beautiful too! Love how you added the sparkle to her parasol!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this Lisa, everything is perfect!!!

ReplyDeleteI hope you are having a great week! So, did you get a lot of snow? We only got about 3 inches, nothing like the east coast! Ofta, that is crazy! I wish we would get a good foot though as we have our annual snowmobile trip coming up~that would be perfect!
Hope you have a great day!

ReplyDeleteI'm usually not fond of oriental style artwork, but this is truly a beautiful card. I love the contrast of the soft flowers and flourish against the geometric pattern of the gate. Well done! Hugs!
