Another Flourishes challenge card for you this am- the Tuesday challenge this week is for a fancy fold or motion card. This is a 3D portrait die from Accu Cut that was designed by my friend Vicki Chrisman - www.vickichrisman.blogspot.com
I had some oppses on this one but in the end it turned out ok - I ended up distressing it with a bit of gesso because the background on the inside turned out too dark - I stamped the flower image as a background in walnut stain and it was way too dark so I sponged the gesso over it until it only shows a little and used red instead of walnut stain on the front which looked a lot better - a bit of gesso on the front just to tie it all together.
The stamp is from Flourishes of course - stamped onto tan cardstock and colored with prismacolor pencils. The phrases are also from Flourishes - embossed with red onto the DP and layered to some textured coordinations paper.

Now that I am caught up on my challenges - puppy says its way past time for her walk.....
Take care

What an awesome card design! Love that shape! And your flowers are beautiful! Thanks so much for joining us in the Timeless Tuesday challenge!
Tera, this is gorgeous, and you did some fab coloring on that pretty image! I had to laugh about the oopsies, though...I do that all the time! It's why I love distressing so much--it can hide just about anything. :)
