Here is a small card I made using Crafty Secrets new Bonjour Merci stamp set. The fold is along the top, and not all the way across. Where you see the scalloped edge is where the top of the card ends. I started by embossing Spellbinders Large Scalloped Rectangles die template with the Flourish Impressabilities die, then stamped and colored the images on the Large Scalloped Rectangles die template, and layered as shown. A double bow was tied using Wrinkle Ribbon, and the bling was added using the i-rock tool, and crystals.
In the photo above, I wanted to show you how I cut/embossed the Long Rectangle, stamped the image of the girl, and borders. On a separate piece of cardstock, I stamped the girl, colored her, and cut her out attaching her over the top for a more 3D look.
Thank you for visiting again today ;) I do have a scrapbook layout out that I will be posting if not tomorrow the next day. The photo is really cute, so please come back.
Hugs Linda ;)

What a sweet card Linda. I love the blue and white color combo. I don't think we see enough of this shade of blue. Beautiful.

Linda, I love the card...as I understand it, the inside of the card is under the long rectangle on top of the card, right?
Just a little different twist...I will be copying the idea, is that ok? I really love it!!!
