IC1085 - Country Door - Inspiration
For this card, I was inspired by the pie in the scene, so I reached for my favorite Spellbinders pie die set and cut all of the layers to build a warm, homey pie. I added a couple of lemon pieces along with the flower and leaves to give the arrangement a bright, cheerful touch.
I pulled out several papers from the stash I am working to use up and trimmed them down, adding black highlight layers behind each panel before placing everything on a white card base. The contrast of the black accents against the patterned papers creates a crisp and lively backdrop.
I die cut a few black stars to complement the layers and popped up two of the star and circle pieces to add extra interest. After assembling the pie, lemons, and flower, I added dimensionals behind the pie and finished it with a soft shimmer of Stickles.
To complete the card, I scattered several gems and popped up the birthday sentiment for a final bit of sparkle and lift.

I'm very much hoping it's an apply pie Lisa and those lemon slices so realistic. Thanks for updating to SCS on your previous post, did wonder if it was just a typo, now understand completely.
