Ismaki 18 "Hi There"

I made this card for my good friend Kristine. She sent me a couple of weeks ago so many things.. ohh. i cant wait to show you a stamp set she got for me. This set has been especially designed to use with our Magnoila's :-) the size is perfect and the frames are wonderful. it is from a company in Norway. LOOOVE it. Kristine totally surprised me with this gift. - Thank you so much!
I wanted to make something more "special" for her cause if you look at Kristines cards on her blog you know what i mean :-). You can see how much work she puts in each of her cards (really take a peek what she posted today!!). So no way i can just sent her a single layer card hahahaha! She never just stops at the front.. her designs are totally well thought out and start at the front and go to the inside to the back of the cards.
For my card i used again the sweing machine to attach my cs to the base of the card (more sewing was done in the inside). I did use this weeks IsMaKi sketch for the layout, unfortunately i did not have a 100% matching piece of scalloped CS to use as card base. So, i hope this one is fine too
If you open the ribbon - you can open the front piece thats matted in Rose Red CS and there is an other decorated piece of paper - also vanilla CS matted and sewen with machine to the Rose Red CS. If you made this card for Mothers Day you could add a picture in this layer and on the last one you still have plenty of space to write.
This is the last layer. All flowers are colored on the stamp with green and rose Stampin up markers. More sewing also on this layer.
Did you know that Sweet'n Sassy has many fabulous stampsets with super cute sentiments? right now there is a sale going on were you can earn FREE stamps!
Flowers and Sentiment inside: Stampin up "Long Time Friend" and "In my thoughts"
