Card Art with Copics: Elisabeth Bell's Creative Genius

This fun digital image called Creative Genius was designed by Elisabeth Bell and released about a year ago.  You can find her at the Elisabeth Bell digital gallery here.

This pic shows a closer view of my Copic-filled image.  I've layered a north pole stamp cancellation with a dear santa stamp from an older Basic Grey Figgy Pudding North Pole clear stamp set to support my Christmas theme.



I've layered panels of three different Authentique Collection: Festive patterned papers with Bazzill French Vanilla, Parakeet, Ivy and Ruby Slipper cardstock to form my easel card.  A Satin Sensations 5/8" Citrus satin ribbon is layered over a Martha Stewart Garden Trellis deep edge punched border.  A My Minds Eye Lost and Found Union Square "Favorite" brad adorns each side of the border.

Here's a view of the front of my completed easel card showing my use of Creative Genius, as designed by Elisabeth Bell, with a Christmas theme . . .

 

This view of the inside shows the continuation of my Lifestyle Crafts Large Oval die cuts.  I've included a Close To My Heart believe in magic sentiment from their Christmas Delights set with a computer-generated note about my "enclosed" wish list.  Prima Say It In Crystals swirls provide magical movement throughout.

 

 



 

Here's how my easel card looks when open . . .
