SSD Progressive Monthly Challenge #7 - Show Your Folds

Here is my card for Progressive Monthly Challenge #7 at Sassy Studio Designs. The challenge has been moved over to FB so I'm not sure the link will show for you. It's a "Show Your Folds" challenge. Well, coloring folds is proving to be a very difficult skill for me to accomplish for sure but the challenge also allowed for folds on the card so I went with that. Here is my card:

Here is a closer look at it open:

Here is a closer look at it closed with the ribbon tied:

I don't mind telling you, I love how it came out! I think it looks so elegant! Aren't I just so full of myself? I couldn't help it. I didn't plan to add so many flowers but I used acetate on the background and the matted image started to pop off! I didn't know it would do that. I should have researched the technique a bit before deciding to use it. By the way, her gown is gray. I had someone on FB tell me it was such a great shade of purple! Ha! All the supplies are from my stash and I colored the image with Copic markers. I outlined her gown with Stickles in Stardust and dabbed her gray eyes with Glossy Accents. I also dabbed the flowers with Stickles for some added shimmer. I used a tutorial from Whiff of Joy for the card fold and you can find the tutorial here.

Thanks for stopping by! :)
