Established Elegance

The new 2011-2012 Stampin' Up! catalog has so many amazing samples in it this year!
I am having a great time casing them.
You may notice this card highlighting the set
Established Elegance from page 125
My friend Linda and I had a blast putting this card together.
I couldn't stop there, I had to go for the whole ensemble with a few twist of my own.

The bottom is a BIG SHOT petal cone box with a wooden spool hidden in the bottom with a dowel sprouting out of the top. dowel has crochet ribbon wrapped around it.
(Wooden spools and dowels from local HL store)
Accessories:
Key Trinket, Crochet ribbon, Pear Pizazz seam binding, scallop circle punch, scallop oval punch, matchbox vanilla tag.

When I was finished I had made a photo tree also inspired by the new catalog!
