Teenagers Card

This week over at the Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge, our twist is: LAYERS. Add some layers to your project if you'd like to use the twist. Otherwise, it's always fine to submit an ATG project, so why not join us?!

The digi I'm using is from our creative sponsor this month Bugaboo. If you'd like to check out their selection of fun digis, visit http://www.bugaboostamps.com. They offer a free digi every Friday, also!
I have 4 teenagers in the house right now, so I can relate to this funny sentiment, although in truth I am very grateful for each one of them and realize (most of the time anyway!) how blessed my husband and I are that God entrusted them to our care.
After sizing up and printing out the digi, I cut along the outside lines and then colored it. Then I got to work on all my layers!
For the card base and layers under my digi, I used a die set from Marianne Designs. I made a top-hinge card base with the largest die and then used the same die to cut out a piece of green cardstock for my first layer. Then
I used purple cardstock for the next "scalloped" layer, pink cardstock for the layer with the cut outs, and more green for the smaller layer just behind the digi. The flourishes I used are also Marianne Design dies.
The flowers were and leaves were die cut and embossed using Spellbinder dies, and I arranged them around the edges of the digi. The butterfly is a Gina Marie Designs die. I added some gems to a few of the flowers for a little sparkle.
