Fun Flower Note Cards - Paper Players Challenge #67

These 4 note cards were made using the colour challenge with Paper Players Challenge here  Only 1 of the note cards is shown.




Papers: Bravo Burgundy, More Mustard, Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla, Autumn Spice designer paper
Inks: Cajun Craze
Accessories: Scallop Square Clear Die, Fun flower die, Boho Blossom Punch, Pearls

The base of each note card was a square scallop in Cajun Craze. A  5 1/4 by 5 1/4" piece of designer paper was adhered to the top of the scallop square,. On top of that I adhered a piece of Vanilla card stock 5 by 10" sponged at the edges and folded in half
The Fun Flowers were sponged and layered and adhered to the top half of the Very Vanilla note.  On each note card the flowers were arranged in a different color order.
A pearl was placed in the center, as well as the upper right.
Envelopes were hand made as the card is an unusual size.  A strip of designer paper was adhered to one end.
