Inspired By Sara Naumann

Keren Baker was on the Paper Artsy blog this week but her marvellous shadow box was too much for me. Sara Naumann's project looked ever so easy when she did it in her video, that I jumped at the chance.

In the end, of course, it took me more time than expected to create the card, but I am quite pleased with it, so well worth the extra time!


I used stamps from the ESN07 set, Hot Pick 1205 ({memo} is hidden underneath the flower) and postmarks from my collection.
The flower, I made moons ago using individuals die-cut leaves layered in decreasing size order.

Hope you'll like this project!

  5. It may have taken you longer than you anticipated but it was worth it! Your card is great and I intend to have a go at this asap as I think it will make a great card for my reserves box.

    Keren's gorgeous full project was more than I had time for too so that's why I took a couple of the techniques to create 2 cards (for my sadly empty stash box, lol) instead. Thanks for you lovely comment btw.
