TEN PIN Creative Challenge Card 2/Pin 10

Hello Friends,

Welcome to another challenge sponsored by Dawn Olchefske, my upline with Stampin' Up and leader of DO Stamping with Dawn.  It is called TEN PIN Creative Challenge. 

I have knocked down two pins already, one I have already shared with you in my last blog (Click here to see that blog.) and today's blog post is my 2nd pin, called the Strike pin, which is to make a one-of-a-kind  card. Here is the front of the card, which is pretty, but the inside is where one-of-a-kind takes place! 

I learned this technique from Dawn Griffith, another fabulous demonstrator who so willingly shares her talents.  (Click here for a link to her YouTube video that describes how to create this amazing Double Pop-Up Card.) I just love these wonderful demonstrators who allow me to *CASE their creations (* Copy And Share Everything).

Get ready...... 

Oh. My. Goodness.  I am in LOVE with this card.  I made it for my 94 year old mother who has had back surgery and is still in rehab.  This was a great way to send flowers that stay fresh for, like, ever! 

The sentiment is from the Beauty of  Friendship photopolymer stamp set, stamped in Blushing Bride ink.  The flowers were actually cut out from the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper using the Blossoming Happiness  dies.
