Outlines - Introducing the new Design Team!

To start the new year off, I'm a part of the new Outlines Rubber Stamps Design Team! This is our first team post and our theme was "anything goes", we just wanted to introduce everyone and create something just for fun! We will be posting as a group every Monday!
Please hop around to the other blogs to see what everyone created for our first time out... Bev GerardJeanne StreiffLisa SilverRobin Kirkpatrick, Sandy Hulsart and Vicki Garrett. I'm thrilled to be part of such a talented team!

I knew I wanted to create a card with these candles. I've had this stamp in my stash for a while and have been wanting to ink it up! I chose the striped paper and then matched my Copic markers to the colors of the stripes, well sort of, lol! That was the intent. The candles are part of a larger stamp, I cut the inside candle square images out leaving me with what you see on my card, layering them on my scalloped nestie. In the close up pic, you can see I popped two of the candle images up. The sentiment is popped up using dimensional silicone to hold the "bend" in the banner. Some black pearls and a button/bow to embellish finishes this card. Final card size is an A2.

Like the card and the more I look at it the better I like it. Butttt--can't see where any of the candles pop and does it open up in the middle? Sorry, but been wondering. Edna

Edna, just two of the candles squares are popped. It opens on the bottom... a tent card!
