I must admit to being really into these "scene style" card lately, it's fun to create a whole scene with images and die cuts.
This time after coloring the images I cut them out and layered them with a double row of grass, some cute mushrooms cut from the designer paper and then added a huge butterfly!
I hope you enjoyed my fun card and will drop by Digital Delights to the other fabulous team samples.

What a day, two fabulous posts for you to see!
I can't wait to hop along through this Blog Hop and hope you will too.
It is a collaboration of the Scor-Pal Design Team and the talents of the Skipping Stones Design Team who will be bringing you some fabulous ideas using both companies superb products!
You should have come to me from JoAnn Valderama and her fabulous project. If you didn't then please run back to the Scor-Pal Blog and follow the Hop fully to see all the wonderful work. Also on there are all the details of the PRIZES that are up for winning by a successful Hopper!
Be sure to leave me a comment to be in the drawing.
I got to use the super cute set of stamps called Chic Martini and decided to use it to make a party set perfect for your next Girls Night Out!
Here you can see the complete set, invitations, drinks menu and cocktail rosettes.
Here are the invitations, they are small enough to fit into a regular invitation envelope or (if you leave the pearls off) you could add the address to the reverse and send them as a postcard.
I decided to add a tri-panel drink menu to the set, super easy to make but chic at the same time.
It is simply a 12" by 8" be piece of cardstock scored at 4" and 8" along the 12" side and then trimmed at an angle along the top edge. That edge I then punched for added style.
Each panel is decorated with the same Designer paper and another punched border added along the bottom edge.
I decorated the back panels with a paper too but I thought how cute would it be to add photos after the event and give it to the guest of honor as a keepsake.
To the front of the menu I added a row of 3 stamps glasses and topped them with pearls to coordinate with the invitations.
I made a menu of my favorite cocktails, perfect for evening in or out with my best girlfriends :)
My final touch were cocktail rosettes for the glasses.
You could add the names of the attendants to the back of the rosettes so that everyone knows whose drink is whose.
I added a cute stamped Martini to the front. The rosette was punched with the same border punch as the menu before I scored and folded it so the whole set coordinates.
I really hope you enjoyed this fun set and I will send you on your way to the next spot and that is A.J. Otto but so remember to leave me a comment first to be in with a chance of being our winner!
Have fun Hopping and be sure to drop the Scor-Pal Facebook Fan Page as we have an additional prize for a lucky hopper over there too!
