I started making this wallet card 3 weeks ago as my DT contribution for this week's ABC challenge, however it has just not come together as I wanted, so I made another wallet card for the challenge.
However this week's
Sugar Bowl challenge has really inspired and I finally finished it today. The challenge is Threes - 3 design papers, 3 types of embellishments etc.

This is the front of the wallet card - I adore this stamp so much. I have coloured the image in distress inks and distressed the edges in Papermania ink. I used pink and green flecked with gold cardstock, and K and CO papers. I faux stitched the papers and cardstock in gold gel pen and inked the edges. I added corners that I cut myself, and made the paper beads, following Marlene's tutorial on
Sugar Sugar. The sentiment is PB stamped in Versafine Sepia. The ribbon and gems are from my stash.

This is the inside of the card - all the details are as above.


And finally ... this shows the envelope I made to hold gift vouchers or money.

I am really pleased with it and as it is going to be my Gran's 92nd birthday card, I just hope she will be!
