This is a really pretty card and such a lovely shade of blue .. and is much better in real life than the photo shows.
It is another Hinged Card made from an A4 piece of white card and it is lined inside.
Somebody asked me the other day what was the benefit of making this style of card as opposed to simply folding it in half
Well the simple answer is I add a lot of weight to the front of my cards and they won't free stand if I have the fold on the side ... but they will display beautifully with the fold at the top.
And adding the hinge means I lose nothing off the size of the area on which to add everything.
I have added a pale blue embellishment to the knot .
The flowers are a selection from Wild Orchid Crafts
The pearly swirl is called Frilly Flourish and it is from Want2Scrap
It is a large flourish but I cut it up and use portions of it on several cards.
The website is well worth a visit at present as they are having a half price sale on everything.
More tomorrow ...
