Carte a Jouer #22

#22 Theme : Blue Technique : Mapped Easel
The easel is made with contrasting blue cardstock stuck to the back of the playing card so that it will fold down flat and also stand up by resting one end into the other end folded up. Isa explains the technique so much better than me on her blog at http://isasart.blogspot.com/2011/11/carte-jouer-challenge-22-chevalet-bleu.html. The front of the playing card is decorated with an cardboard oak leaf that has been tripple embossed with UTTEE and then brushed with perfect pearls and then stamped to give texture. I finished the card off with two lines of silver pearls
