This card design was inspired by a super cute card I saw on Julie Davison’s blog here. I love how she used a simple scallop square as her card base. I created my card a little larger using Close to my Heart’s beautiful La Belle Vie Collection. I started by cutting a 5-1/2″ scallop square from a piece of the kit-exclusive Mauve cardstock with the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge. Then I cut a piece of 5″ x 10″ Colonial White cardstock, folded it in half and adhered it to the scallop piece. I added a 4-3/4″ square piece of patterned paper from the La Belle Vie Collection on top. I stamped some faux stitching around the edges with a stamp from the Circle Around set.
The edges of the banners were inked with a little Chocolate ink and adhered to the card. (The stamped piece was adhered with some 3-D Foam Tape.) Finally, I added a few Pearl Adhesive Gems at the top to finish it off.
You really know how to make La Belle Vie shine. Beautiful card!
Thanks Casandra! *Ü*

Pretty! I would have never thought to have a card base like that, very creative…Love it and that paper!
Thank you so much Karina! I never would have thought of it either, until I was inspired by another crafter.
Beautiful. What a blessing to be the reciepient who opens this card.
Awww! Thanks Ru! You are very sweet. *Ü*
Very cool card, I also love the paper and the way you were able to make
the sentiment pop with the three "ribbon tags". I love that paper too.
Thank you Angel. This is one of my favorite new CTMH papers. *Ü*
