Two-in-One

Hello PINspirational Friends,

I am so happy to have you here today. We have a new challenge at PINspirational! But before I get to the challenge here is my card for today, enjoy!


Lots of color and a few surprises are part of this card. First, it opens from the top! Second, it uses two My Bestie images, our generous sponsor for this fortnight challenge. You can see the card is partially open which hints at what is inside.

The color of the sunflowers and our grateful girl on the front really lets this card stand out.
I used a flimsy sheet of kraft paper for the cover. This gave me an opportunity to fold the kraft paper and not add too much weight. I tried to think 'out-of-the-box' and I think I succeeded.
Now let's open the card!
Surprise! Yet another My Bestie image called Happy Fall.
The sunflowers along with the leaves are so festive and fun.
You can easily add a personal message on the doubled up kraft paper.

The sponsor is
Prize-3 digis

 A detail shot of both of the girls.
You will notice on the front of the card I colored the space around her hair a kraft brown color in hopes that it would camouflage the space that otherwise would have been white. 

 Challenges Entered:
Card Concept: #99- Sunflower Serenade

Hi Shawna! I was so intrigued by your darling top opening card, had to read how it presented the beautifully colored sunflowers and smiling sweetie inside. Adorable! A BIG thanks for joining in the fun at the Card Concept!
