Sepia Congratulations

It's Sunday, so it's Featured Stamper Challenge time again!!  Today the honour goes to NCSUnikki - congratulations Nikki!!!  :)  This would have to be the fastest card I've made in a looooooong time - but I just loved Nikki's The Neutral Party card and just HAD to case it!!  :)

I started with a base of Very Vanilla, layered with Close to Cocoa and more Vanilla.  I stamped the sentiment from As You Graduate at the bottom and then embossed the panel with Nat EF.  I attached some May Arts ribbon around these panels.  I stamped the image from ODBD's As You Graduate in Memento Rich Cocoa onto X-press It Blending Card and coloured it with Copics (E00, E31, E33, E37, E37) and sponged the sky with a little Antique Linen.  I cut out the image and framed it with Cocoa cut with Label 8 Nestabilities and popped it up on some foam tape.  To finish I added some Kaisercraft Latte Pearls to the biggest butterfly and a big bow to the ribbon.
