Inspiration Emporium Challenge

I found out about the Inspiration Emporium Challenge from my friend Shelly Hickox's blog and was intrigued by this month's challenge to use packaging. The base of my piece is a clear plastic dimensional "folder" - can't remember what it was used for....something my husband recently bought that I saved before it went into the recycle bin. The fun part of a project like this is that you can work in layers. I cut an additional piece of plastic from a newly purchased embossing folder package to fit the inside and embossed it with my new folder. I added a scrap of French script text from French Kissed to the back and an image from Enchanted Mercantile to the inside along with dimensional paper flowers. To the inside of the front, I added postage stamps (Stampington) and used glossy accents to adhere it which worked really well. Finally on the outside of the front, I stamped with StazOn (both black and white) - the art nouveau corners are from Purple Onion Designs and the postmarks are from Oxford Impressions.
