Girly Girly Birthday Easel Cards-Something new

I will tell you right up front I was inspired to create this beautiful card while I was blog surfing. I found Papercraft Inspirations and will go back again and again to be inspired.  I hope no one will take my scraplifting as an insult but a tribute to their awesomeness!
That being said, I love the feminine feel of this blue card with the pearls, paper lace (thanks Pammie), ribbons, flower punchies.  The paisley paper I used is embossed with blue glossy accents making it catch the light.
Then I decided to try one with a different punchie and vintage yellow and Red rose paper with a grungy feel to it.  The "dress" is mounted on yellow vellum/mounted on the rose paper with orange/yellow bling at each flower center. I added some delicate flourishes (thanks Teresa!), crystal buttons, cream ribbon and paper lace.  I can't wait to send these to some dear friends!  I will place this on the ScrapBook Place Blog where our challenge for the month is FLOWERS-I love this time of year-everything's so pretty!
I'm entering this in the following challenges:

  2. Such a beautiful cards Carolyn. I like blue card more, but only because my favorite color is blue :) They are both gorgeous. Thanks so much for joining Digi Makeover Challenge at PMS. Hope to see you again soon.

    1. Thanks Eret! I like the "fluttery?" look of the larger flowers myself on the blue one-appreciate the remarks!

  3. These are both stunning! (I may need to scraplift too. :-). ) I love how you can get a totally different look and feel depending on papers, etc. I would have a very hard time choosing between the two. So glad you joined us for the May Flowers challenge at Paper Makeup Stamps' Digi Makeover Challenge this week.
