Karen Burniston Card Challenge "Fly"

The word is "Fly" - How will you interpret it?

The first thing that came to my mind was the saying "wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall?" 
I decided to design a card with two friends chating in a coffee shop.

   

Supplies:
Karen Burniston's Lucky Label Pop Up and Accordion Fancy Label from her Pop It Ups collections
Art Impressions - Coffee BFF
Prima - Cling Mounted Stamps #551056 (fly)
Distress Ink - Vintage photo and gathered twigs
Memento - Tuxedo Black
Stampin' Up - Morning Cup Stamp
My Favorite Things Stamp - Western Backgrounds
Bazzill Paper - White, Wheat, thick plastic
Authentique - Promise three
Copic - BV000,BV01,BV02,RV42,E11,E13,E17,E25,E47,E57,YR24,YR27,B39,B45,C5,R17,BG02

 Coffee BFF was stamped using Tuxedo Black onto Bazzill White.  Colored with Copics

Cut Bazzill white 10 3/4 x 4 1/2, stamp bottom using the wood grain stamp from My Favorite Things. (Vintage Photo ink), cut  Promise three 4 1/2 x 5 3/8.  Attach Promise three as wall paper of the coffee shop.  Cut think plastic 4 x 4 1/2, then cut lucy label using thick plastic piece.  I made a little alteration to Lucy label.  Cut a little off each side of the label.  Lucy Label was attached to card using red line tape, the attach BFFs using your favorite glue.  Next I attached the Coffee Shop sign using foam squares, then fly was stamped.  Front of card: Cut Wheat 4 1/4 x 5 1/4, cut Promise three 1/2 x 4 1/4. Morning cup was stamped on a scrap of wheat and fussy cut.  Morning cup is attached using mini foam squares.

I hope you enjoyed my little fly on the wall card.  All supplies (except stampin up stamp) were purchased at Scrapp'n Savvy in Spring Texas
